Biography:
Andrew Bird (born July 11, 1973) is an American musician. He was born in Lake Bluff, Illinois and resides in the Chicago area. Bird is a singer, a violinist and, since 2004, a guitarist. He is also an accomplished whistler.
His early work, which echoed gypsy jazz and traditional folk, has led into his current sound, which mixes rock with more broad compositions. His years of solo song-craft have now enabled him to produce a sound that is uniquely his own.

Intro: Am F (x2) G
C
When our mouths are filled
F
with uninvited tongues of others
C
And the strays are pining
F
for their unrequited mothers
C G
Milk that sours is promptly spat
Am F
Light will fill our eyes like cats
C F
And they shall enter from the back
C
With spears and scepters and squirming sacks
G
Scribs and tangles between their ears
Am
Faceless scrumbled charcoal smears
F (C)
oh dear
Through the coppice and the chaparral
The thickets thick with mold
The bracken and the brier
Am F Am F
Catchweed into the fold
(whistle solo)
C F C F C G Am F

When our mouths are filled
