Bird On A Wire by Johnny Cash F C F Bb Like a bird, on a wire, like a drunk in a midnight choir. F C Fsus4 F I have tried in my ways to be free. F C F Like a fish, on a hook, like a knight in some old fashioned Bb book. F C Fsus4 F I have saved all my ribbons for thee. Bb F And if I, if I have been unkind. Gm F I just hope you, will let it go by. Bb F And if I, if I have been untrue. Gm C I just hope you know, it was never to you. F C F Bb Like a baby, stillborn, like a beast with his horn. F C Fsus4 F I have torn everyone who reached out to me. F C F Bb But I swear,by this song,and by all that I have done wrong. F C Fsus4 F I'll make it all up to thee. Bb F I saw a young man, leaning on his wooden crutch. Gm F He called out to me, don't ask for so much. Bb F And a young woman, leaning in her darkened door. Gm C She cried out to me, hey why not ask for more. F C F Bb Like a bird, on a wire, like a drunk in a midnight choir. F C Bb F I have tried in my ways to be free. www.TAB6.com
