E                             
History's made it's mark in anger
A9                               E
As everybody knows it's what we do
               A9 
It's nothing new

E
The next chords struck are fault and failure
A9                                       E
And we both know that finger points on cue
                  A9
There's blame for two

E
Do you really want him coming Newo? 
A9                                       E
Do you really think he's coming back to you? 
                                                             A9
Oh, Once the world stops spinning, read that writing on the wall.

E
Is there another. Newo?
A9                                         E
Is there cushion just enough to break my fall

Oh, don't you cry
                      A9
Just lie there baby in the past, Cause if you want it all right now

A9                                         E
Hide your feathers, on the back porch, baby
B                          A9                           E  B
He's coming home for... you've... been... such... a liar
A9                                         E
Hide your feathers, Little back porch lady 
B                          A9                           E  B
You're too old... enough to cry your sorry eyes out over the world

E
Hear me scream outside your window
A9                                       E
I'm only here to make my peace with you... 
                A9
There's something new

E
Oh, it was our time, that day in our lives
A9                                       E
If I could do things different, what would I choose?
                     A9
Oh, why would you cry, Mama. 
Please, don't cry Mama. 
Oh, don't you cry, no, no.

A9                                                   E
Right now! hide your feathers on the back porch, baby.
B                          A9                           E  B
He's coming home for... you've... been... such... a liar. 
A9                                                   E
Hide your feathers, little back porch lady 
B                          A9                           E  B
You're too old... enough to cry your sorry eyes out over the world

C                           Am
No other could wait for a lover to embrace, boy
             Em
When there's no more room for love,
F#/F#
You'll sail her off to the shores

C                           Am
No other could wait for a lover to embrace, boy
             Em
When there's no more room for love,
F#/F#
You'll sail her off to the shores
