Key: C
Introduction:
C G
He sang so loud, sang so clear
Am F
I was afraid all the neighbours would hear
C G
so I invited him in just to reason with him,
Am F(strum
promised I wouldn't do it again
But he sang
C
louder and louder inside the house
G
and now I couldn't get him out
Am
so I trapped him under a cardboard box
F
stood on it to make it stop
C
I picked up the bird and above the dim
G
said that's the last time you'll ever sing
C G
Held him down, broke his neck
Am F
taught him a lesson he wouldn't forget
C G Am F
But in my dreams began to hear
C G
that old familiar
Am(strum F(strum
tweet tweet tweet
C
I opened my mouth to scream and shout
G
and I waved my arms and flapped about
Am
but I couldn't scream and I couldn't shout
F
couldn't scream and I couldn't shout
(repeat)
C G Am F
from my mouth, from my mouth
C G Am F
from my mouth, from my mouth
(repeat to fade)
