Chords
pin

Intro: Em G D Em  x2


Em                      G
Feed the kittens in the kitchen
D                    Em
Set food out for the strays
Em                  G
Try hard to do your best
    D                    Em
The magpie will have his way


Em  G  D  Em  x2

Em                   G
Fill your mouth with berries
       D                Em
By the full light of the moon
Em                    G
Work all night if you have to
    D               Em
The magpie comes at noon


Bridge:

Em  Bm  A  Em   x4


Em               G
Shore up the crucifixes
          D                Em
Above the archways and the doors
    Em                  G
The magpie will come at midday
             D              Em
And you will go down on all fours


Em  G  D  Em  x2


Em                               G
And when the cherry's white with blossoms
   D            Em
Be ready and be brave
Em                   G
And remember what we had here
               D                 Em
When there was something left to save

Bridge:

Em  Bm  A  Em  x4
