Birds
Intro: G#m F#
Verse 1:
G#m
This is our true alarm. This is reality.
F#
We will do what we can.
G#m
We are just figurines with a theology
F#
that we don?t understand.
Pre-Chorus:
D#m
We can?t forget the
B
beginning, when He
C#
set our broken wings.
Chorus:
D#m
God, how much does it
B
take for us to be
F#
loved? For us to be
C#
saved? We all are
D#m
birds stuck inside our
B
cage, covered up with
F#
praise. And behind our
C#
saints we hide our
D#m
face. Oh, the numbers
B
come. Yeah, they?re dialing
F#
in. We can?t
G#m (?)
help but to comp-
C#
are ourselves again.
Break:
GF#
Verse 2:
G#m
I can?t believe in this?this blue-lipped, lifeless kiss.
F#
And we can?t see past our thrones.
G#m
We fight for life within, but our walls are wearing thin.
F#
Oh God, where have we gone?
Pre-Chorus:
D#m
When I?m just one fighting in-
B
difference, does it
C#m
matter what I say?
Chorus:
D#m
God, how much does it
B
take for us to be
F#
loved? For us to be
C#
saved? We all are
D#m
birds stuck inside our
B
cage, covered up with
F#
praise. And behind our
C#
saints we hide our
D#m
face. Oh, the numbers
B
come. Yeah, they?re dialing
F#
in. We can?t
G#m (?)
help but to comp-
C#
are ourselves again.

It?s not that there were ever bad
F#
intentions? it?s
