Messenger Bird's Song - Bright Eyes http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ly14RQOYfFs _______________________________________________ Capo at 2nd fret: C F The kitchen is cold C F But the coffee is warm G And the sun's coming up F The day has just begun C F And you're already bored. C F Bored of cheering me up C F Bored of calming me down G Bored of drying my eyes F But there once was a time C F when you were the one. C F You were the blue of the sky C F You came after the storm G You were the switch on the wall F In the dark of the hall C F I'm still fumbling for C F Cause I'm lost in the black C F I don't know where I am. G Arms stretched out in front F I'm calling your name C F Just as loud as I can G Am I know there's words that we will never speak G Am G And the questions can't be answered easily G But I wanted to be easy so Am D ... Nod your head if the plans have changed G C ... Shake it, love, they stayed the same Am D ... Smile at me and I will stay G C ... Start to cry and I'll go away D G Just please don't leave me guessing. C F So you made me come C F Then you sent me away C F Like a messenger bird G So I circled the earth F Blown away in the wind C F But I always returned C F With some new little song C F Some sad story to tell G Of a brief love affair F With a girl I compared C F to you and she failed C F You said you don't want me to beg C F Then you said get down on your knees G Cause you knew that I would F If I do any good C F satisfying your needs. G Am And I know all about those things we cannot speak G Am G And just so you know well they don't bother me G So you don't have to be worried, just Am D ... Nod your head if the plans have changed G C ... Shake it, love, if they stayed the same Am D ... Smile at me and I will stay G C ... Start to cry and I'll go away D G Just please don't keep me waiting Am D Just ... nod your head if your mind's been changed G C ... Shake it, love, if some hope remains Am D Just ... say the word and of course I'll stay G C ... Roll your eyes and I'll go away D G Just please don't leave me guessing. Am G Just please don't keep me waiting ________________________________________________________ Tabbed by Adam Alfredsson
