Flightless Bird, American Mouth

Chords
pin

Eb
I was a quick, wet boy, 	
            Cm
Diving too deep for coins
             Ab
All of your street light eyes, 
             Bb
Wide on my plastic toys
              Eb
And when the cops closed the fair
          Cm
I cut my long baby hair
            Ab
Stole me a dog-eared map
                   Bb
And called for you everywhere


Eb
Have I found you?
Cm               Ab          Bb
Flightless bird, jealous, weeping
Eb
Or lost you?
Cm
American mouth
Ab         Bb
Big pill, looming 


          Eb
Now I'm a fat house cat 
           Cm
Nursing my sore blunt tongue 
             Ab
Watching the warm poison rats
                 Bb
Curl through the wide fence cracks 
           Eb
Pissing on magazine
             Cm
Photos those fishing lures
              Ab
Thrown in the cold and clean
                Bb
Blood of Christ mountain stream 


Eb
Have I found you?
Cm               Ab          Bb
Flightless bird, grounded, bleeding
Eb
Or lost you?
Cm
American mouth
Ab         Bb                 ...Eb
Big pill stuck going down

    Really nice tab, sounds great when plucking the chords using the C string then adding the last two strings E&A as a pair at the end. Example: C EA EA C EA EA...
