Little Birds by Neutral Milk Hotel lovely, intense, and unreleased; post Aeroplane tune standard tuning intro: Am Am Little birds born without a mother or a father I can watch their bodies forming in the running water G Now there is another in the middle of my mouth Em A hundred altogether within me now Am Little bird, little bird come into my body Am Mother, they're within me every moment I'm awaking Bodies multiplying 'til they finally overtake me G Open up my mouth but all you'll ever hear is singing Em Put you hand within me and you'll know what I'm feeling Am I just want to swallow up and promise to protect them Am Daddy come to touch me but he seen his hands a shaking Look into my eyes and he could see their bodies breaking G Push me to the floor and in his hands I started beating Em I don't want to hear it anymore, he kept repeating Am Do you really want the burning hell that we believe in? Am Did you know the burning hell it took your baby brother? Did you see how far he fell and how he made us suffer? G Another boy in town at night he took him for his lover Em And deep in sin they held each other Am So I took a hammer and nearly beat his little brains in Knowing God in heaven would have, never could forgive him G Em So I took a hammer and I nearly beat his brains in Am Little boy born without a father or a mother Am Taken to the river and then pushed into the water G And the priests are singing that the hell is getting hotter la la la la la Am Father, Son and Holy Ghost, the only one to save him From the thing he loves the most but we know will betray him Father, Son and Holy Ghost, the only one to save him G From the thing he loves the most but we know will betray him Am G And here beneath the water I can see Em Am How the lights distort so strange G Em And I think this is how I would like to leave my body Am And start again
