[Verse]
G A Bm A G
I went to a wedding, I brought a song
G A D
I folded it up like a list of thanks at a Praisathon
G A Bm A G
The bride was Snow White, the groom was strong
G A D
Trailers as endless as the day is long
[Chorus]
G A D Dsus2 Bm
Some days are fairy tales, some days belie
E C#m
The four and twenty black birds baked in a pie
G A D Dsus2 Bm
Could open up their sweet throats to serenade a king
C G G A Bm D G
That's a lot of heat to take and still be able to sing, sing, sing
[Verse]
G A Bm A G
It's not been proven hard to bring unending start
G A Bm A G
And even easier to die from a broken heart
G A Bm A G
Oh, was a blind force trauma from the fireworks
G A D
That someone is celebrating while another gets hurt
[Chorus]
G A D Dsus2 Bm
Some days are fairy tales, some days belie
E C#m
The four and twenty black birds baked in a pie
G A D Dsus2 Bm
Could open up their sweet throats to serenade a king
C G G A Bm D G
That's a lot of heat to take and still be able to sing, sing, sing
[Bridge]
A
Still I see them in the night
B
With their blood red wings alike
C#m
While the rocket's red glare
B
Gives proof through the night
C
If some things not right
A
Some things not right
[Verse]
G A Bm A G
In the book of Steven there is no prophecy
G A D
'Cause there was no need for God in the way things came to be
G A Bm A G
Some live by faith, some live by proof
G A D
They don't meet up on a friendly road or live under the same roof
[Chorus]
G A D Dsus2 Bm
Some days are fairy tales, some days belie
E C#m
The four and twenty black birds baked in a pie
G A D Dsus2 Bm
Could open up their sweet throats to serenade a king
C G G A Bm D G
That's a lot of heat to take and still be able to sing, sing, sing
[Outro]
G A Bm
And the birds fall hard like black rain
G A Bm
Jerking the earth with a portent stain
G A Bm
Beat like drums, they beat like a wings
Are we looking? Are we listening?
G A A G G A A G
Sing, sing, sing, sing
G A Bm
Sing, sing, sing
