[Intro]
E
[Verse]
E G
I don't wanna be a messenger pigeon only to be ignored,
Am E Am E
But who are you, who are you to me?
E G
I can't wait to wake up from the night's hibernation,
Am E Am E
But where are you, where did you go?
E G
You were the fly frozen to my window screen,
Am E Am E
But how long, how long have you been there?
E G
Now chased by memories in my sleep and I'm climbin' dream fire escapes,
Am E Am E
But why do you follow, why do you follow me?
[Chorus]
Am G
My wings will take me away from this place,
Am E
But you’ve got your gun to shoot me down.
Am G
I’ll just head south for a while,
Am E
But you’ve got your sights on me now.
[Verse]
E G
Like the coyote I’ll howl at the moon,
Am E Am E
Now can you hear me, for once can you hear me?
E G
Night creatures will sing our songs and the trees will dance along,
Am E Am E
Now will you remember, do you remember the tune?
E G
That’s all I ever have to keep in my tears drawer,
Am E Am E
Now will you be able, will you be able to find them?
[Chorus]
Am G
My wings will take me away from this place,
Am E
But you’ve got your gun to shoot me down.
Am G
I’ll just head south for a while,
Am E
But you’ve got your sights on me now.
[Instrumental]
Am G Am E
[Chorus]
Am G
My wings will take me away from this place,
Am E
But you’ve got your gun to shoot me down.
Am G
I’ll just head south for a while,
Am E
But you’ve got your sights on me now.
