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.

[Verse 1]
A#
Here's a little game
F/A#
You can play alone
A#
Oh you do the walk of shame
F/A#
From the comfort of your home
A#
So here's another game
F/A#
You can play along
A#
Where you empty all your blame
F/A#
From your guilty bones
[Chorus]
F5 Gm* A#
Oh the eyes, the eyes, the eyes, they know
(The eyes, they know)
F5 Gm* A#
Like a thousand tiny suns that glow
(And they burn and they glow)
Cm A# Gm
Oh the eyes, the eyes, the eyes, they know
C Eb
While truth lies low
C Eb A#
While truth lies low

So here's another game...
[Verse 2]
A#
Fools are taking aim
F/A#
They got pistols in their phones
A#
Holocene is on the wane
F/A#
We got plastic in our stones
[Chorus]
F5 Gm* A#
Oh the lies, the lies, the lies, they grow
(The lies, they grow)
F5 Gm* A#
Like a thousand tributaries flow
(The eyes, they know)
Cm A# Gm
Oh the eyes, the eyes, the eyes, they know
C Eb
While truth lies low
C Eb A# D7
While truth lies low
[Bridge]
Eb A# D7
Vitriol from their pens flows
Eb A# D7
Anonymously their hate crows
A# C
But at least they care enough
F5 D5
At least they care enough
A# F5 A#
At least they care enough to let you know
[Outro Instrumental]
A# F/A# (x8)
