Standard (EADGBE)

Well hush there'll be no more tonight

 You can't work and I can't fight

 Well that's just beautiful

But it's the way you hold your breath

 That's scarin' me to death

 Well that's your way, anyway, anyway

If everybody talks

We gotta listen to what they say

 There's a picture that I'm painting

 And you know it won't be pretty

 It's a song I give someone else to sing

 It's a melody I stole from a bathroom wall

 And it's the words I hear the birds sing

"I don't mean to pry but it's been said

 That you've got Demons in your head"

 I ask real casual

But it's the way I wear my frown

 That only helps to bring you down

 Well that's my way, anyway, anyway

And everybody talks

We gotta make it make some sense

 There's a picture that I'm painting

 And you know it won't be pretty

 It's a song I give someone else to sing

 It's a melody I stole from a bathroom wall

 And it's the words I hear the birds sing

Words I hear the birds sing

Well hush therell be no more tonight

 You can't work and I can't fight

 Well that's just beautiful

But it's the way I hold my breath

 That's scarin' you to death

 Well that's our way, anyway, anyway, anyway

Well everybody talks

People rarely say a word

 There's a picture that I'm painting

 And you know it won't be pretty

 It's a song I give someone else to sing

 It's a melody I stole from a bathroom wall

 And it's the words I hear the birds sing

Words I hear the birds sing

Words I hear the birds sing

Words I hear the birds sing

Words I hear the birds sing

Words I hear the birds sing
