INTRO: Dm

                                       Bb
There's a blackbird perched outside my window
           F
I hear him calling
           Am
I hear him sing
   Dm                                Bb
He burns me with his eyes of gold to embers
               F
He sees all my sins
            C
He reads my soul


PRE-CHORUS:
Gm           Dm       Am       Bb
One day that bird, he spoke to me
Gm          Dm           Am  Bb   C   F
Like Martin Luther, like Pericles

Come fly with black
               C        Bb

From the human track

He'll make you king


                           Bb
On a blanket made of woven shadows
           F
Flew up to heaven
             Am
On a raven's glide
      Dm                             Bb
These angels have turned my wings to wax now
            F
I fell like Judas
             C
From grace tonight

    Gm      Dm     Am      Bb
And on that day he lied to me
Gm          Dm           Am  Bb   C   F
Like Martin Luther, like Pericles

The broken wings

Betrayal's cost
     Dm                             Bb
They call to me, but never touch my heart now

I'm too lost

You never learn
