Chords
[Intro]
Em B Em B
Em
[Verse 1]
Em Edna Milton in a drop dead suit
Dutch Pink on a downBtown train
Two dollar pistol but the gun won't shoot
I'm in the corner on the Empouring rain
Sixteen men on a deadman's chest
And I've been drinking from a Bbroken cup
Two pairs of pants and a mohair vest
I'm full of bourbon, I can'tEm stand up
[Chorus]
AmHey little bird, fly awayEm home
Your Bhouse is on fire, your chilEmdren are alone
Am Hey little bird, fly awayEm home
Your Bhouse is on fire, your chilEmdren are alone
[Verse 2]
Em Schiffer broke a bottle on Morgan's head
And I've been stepping on the Bdevil's tail
Across the stripes of a full moon's head
Through the bars of a EmCuban jail
Bloody fingers on a purple knife
A flamingo drinking from a Bcocktail glass
I'm on the lawn with someone else's wife
Admire the view from up on Emtop of the mast
[Chorus]
AmHey little bird, Emfly away home
Your Bhouse is on fire, your chilEmdren are alone
Am Hey little bird, Emfly away home
Your Bhouse is on fire, your childrenEm are alone
[Solo]
Em B Em B
Em
[Chorus]
AmHey little bird, Emfly away home
Your Bhouse is on fire, your childrenEm are alone
Am Hey little bird, Emfly away home
Your Bhouse is on fire, your childrenEm are alone
[Verse 3]
Em Yellow sheets on a Hong Kong bed
Stazybo horn and Ba Slingerland ride
"To the carnival" is what she said
A hundred dollars makes it Emdark inside
Edna Milton in a drop dead suit
Dutch Pink on a downBtown train
Two dollar pistol but the gun won't shoot
I'm in the corner on the Empouring rain
[Chorus]
AmHey little bird, flyEm away home
Your Bhouse is on fire, your childrenEm are alone
Am Hey little bird, Emfly away home
Your Bhouse is on fire, your childrenEm are alone
