Johnny Cash - Bird on a wire

Like a ^Fbird, on a ^Cwire, like a ^Fdrunk in a midnight ^Bbchoir. I have ^Ftried in my ^Cways to be ^Fsus4free. ^F Like a ^Ffish, on a ^Chook, like a ^Fknight in some old fashioned ^Bbbook. I have ^Fsaved all my ^Cribbons for ^Fsus4thee. ^F

And if ^BbI, if I have been un^Fkind. I just ^Gmhope you, will let it go ^Fby. And if ^BbI, if I have been un^Ftrue. I just ^Gmhope you know, it was never to ^Cyou.

Like a ^Fbaby, still^Cborn, like a ^Fbeast with his ^Bbhorn. I have ^Ftorn every^Cone who reached out to ^Fsus4me. ^F But I ^Fswear,by this ^Csong,and by ^Fall that I have done ^Bbwrong. ^FI'll make it ^Call up to ^Fsus4thee. ^F

I saw a ^Bbyoung man, leaning on his wooden ^Fcrutch. He called ^Gmout to me, don't ask for so ^Fmuch. And a ^Bbyoung woman, leaning in her darkened ^Fdoor. She cried ^Gmout to me, hey why not ask for ^Cmore.

Like a ^Fbird, on a ^Cwire, like a ^Fdrunk in a midnight ^Bbchoir. I have ^Ftried in my ^Cways to be ^Bbfree. ^F
