Love and Rocket's "Rain Bird"
from _Earth, Sun, Moon_

[F#]Bsus2 [-]- [244322]x24422
E - 022100
A(add B) G6 F#7(add B) - repeat sequence
Rain bird dives throught the hole
In a broken guitar
Rain bird sings a song so sad in blue
Like a stranded insect
Stuck in a bowl of glue
F#7(add B) - stick
He tries to fly
But he will die
If he ever leaves the z[F#]oo
- restart A(add B) sequence
Rain Bird / Rain Bird
Rain bird swoops through the
Chimney pots and rain
Rain bird flies to the edge of a gilded cage
Hiding in the spotlights
Of a famous stage
F#7(add B) - stick again
He tries to become invisible
Whilst stealing the front pag[F#]e
- restart A(add B) sequence
Rain Bird / Rain Bird / Rain Bird / Rain Bird
[F#]When you were a boy
You used to [Bsus2]wish for this
But like the [F#]cat who turns his nose
[Bsus2]Up at the dish
[F#]Now that you have it[Bsus2]
You want to give it away
- no chord
When you had to work so hard
Slogging for a pittance
In a boot and shoe yard
[F#]That's when you wanted[Bsus2]
What you now give away
F# Bsus2 E - no lyrics
- repeat A(add B) sequence
Rain Bird
You're all the rage, bird
Rain Bird
You're all the rage, bird
- end on F#
-David J
