Birds Of Paradise by Basia Bulat

Birds of Paradise – Basia Bulat

Intro: E Ab A E B A

E				                           Ab
I've been sleeping without memory
Ab			
I think I'll lie a little longer
A			                     E
Wait for the crowds to go
	           B			                   A		
Maybe I'll die in this unholy mass
	              E
And I'll be free

E					                                    Ab
Yes that's what they say that I would be
Ab
When we came to watch the world be over
			                      A
But there's too many fools
		                    E
On this boat that made
     B			              A
I can hardly see the water


Chorus:

B
What's happened to me
	        A
I was down on my knees
A
I was praying to leave
       E				                            B
But I never know when I've gone too far

B
This disaster in me
	       A
What a beautiful dream
A
That told me I'd be cleaner
E			                        B
Told me I'd be closer to God


Interlude: A E Ab A 


E
Oh, the birds of paradise
		           Ab
Came to me yesterday
Ab
Laughed when they told me my fate
	          A                    		           E
We'd be cold, we'd be tired, but we could breathe
			                       B		         A
And one day I'm gonna leave this place


Repeat Chorus


End: A  E  Ab  A  E  Ab  A  F#  E
