The Cage

Verse 1
D G A D
You broke the bread, we drank the wine,
D G A Asus4
Your lip was bleedin but it was fine,
D G A D
Come on inside, babe, across the line,
D G A Asus4
I love you more than I.

 Chorus

 D             G         A     D

 But then this bird just flew away,

 Bm       F#   A        F#

 She was never meant to stay,

       G                     A7             D

 Oh to keep her caged, would just delay the spring

Verse 2
You broke your word, now thats a lie,
We had a deal that you would try,
Come on inside girl, I think it’s time,
High time we drew the line.

 Chorus

 D             G         A     D

 But then this bird just flew away,

 Bm       F#        A     F#

 While I looked the other way

       G                     A7             D

 Oh to keep her caged, would just delay the spring

Interlude
D Dsus2sus4 D G A Asus4 D
Oh.. Oh…

Verse 3
D G A D
You broke my soul dear, you stole the plot,
D G A Asus4
You left an empty shot,
D G A D
There’s nothing left here, cos you took the lot.
D G A Asus4
An empty cage is all I’ve got.

 Chorus

 D             G         A     D

 But then this bird just flew away,

 Bm       F#   A        F#

 She was never meant to stay,

       G               A             Asus4        D   Dsus4   D   Dsus4

 Oh to keep her caged, would just delay the spring.
