Bird on the Wire chords by Leonard Cohen |
No Easy Version
| A E |
| Like a bird on the wire |
| A D |
| Like a drunk in a midnight choir |
| A E A Asus4 A |
| I have tried in my way to be free |
| A E |
| Like a worm on a hook |
| A D |
| Like a knight from some old fashioned book |
| A E A Asus4 A |
| I have saved all my ribbons for thee |
| D A |
| If I, if I have been unkind |
| Bm A |
| I hope that you can just let it go by |
| D A |
| If I, if I have been untrue |
| Bm E Esus4 E |
| I hope you know it was never to you |
| A E |
| Like a baby, stillborn |
| A D |
| Like a beast with his horn |
| A E A Asus4 A |
| I have torn everyone who reached out for me |
| A E |
| But I swear by this song |
| A D |
| And by all that I have done wrong |
| A E A Asus4 A |
| I will make it all up to thee |
| D A |
| I saw a beggar leaning on his wooden crutch |
| Bm A |
| He said to me, "You must not ask for so much." |
| D A |
| And a pretty woman leaning in her darkened door |
| Bm E Esus4 E |
| She cried to me, "Hey, why not ask for more?" |
| Bridge: |
| A A A A x4 |
| A E |
| Oh like a bird on the wire |
| A D |
| Like a drunk in a midnight choir |
| A E D A |
| I have tried in my way to be free |
| Ending: |
| A A A A x4 |
