The Bird And The Rifle Cifras

[Intro]
 
G       G       D       D
 
G       G       Bm      A
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
          D           G            D
There's a bird making coffee in the kitchen
              D              G           D
And there's a rifle out back smoking cigarettes
A                              G
He don't ever really feel like talking
                      D    G   D
Don't matter what she says
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
        D              G                D
And the bird is always dreaming out the window
D               G             D
Looking at that big wide open sky
        A                      G
And the rifle, he used to be a dreamer
                       D    G   D
But he wasn't meant to fly
 
 
[Chorus]
 
G                                                    Bm        A
Something down, on the ground, won't let her out and holds her in
G                                           Bm    A
He's afraid if she flies, she'll never come home again
G                                Bm             A
Something about the bird in her spreading those wings
G                              D
Always brings the rifle out in him
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
        D               G               D
But the rifle loves the bird when she's singing
       D           G             D
And he knows every word to every song
        A                                      G
And the bird, she loves the rifle, 'cause he's dangerous,
             D      G   D
stubborn and strong
 
 
[Chorus]
 
G                                                   Bm         A
Something down, on the ground, won't let her out and holds her in
G                                           Bm    A
He's afraid if she flies, she'll never come home again
G                                Bm             A
Something about the bird in her spreading those wings
G                              D
Always brings the rifle out in him
 
 
[Bridge]
 
G               D
Uu uu u uuu u u uuu uuuu
G               Bm     A
Uu uu u uuu u u uuu uuuu
 
 
[Verse 4]
 
    D                      G        D
One night, when the autumn wind was perfect
        D               G                  D
And the rifle drank his whiskey and went to bed
       A                           G
And he never even heard the window open
                        D
And she ain't come back yet
 
 
[Bridge]
 
G               D
Uu uu u uuu u u uuu uuuu
G               Bm     A
Uu uu u uuu u u uuu uuuu
