Birds with Broken Wings by Ben Caplan

These are chords and tab to this version of the song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P6byMJHNrBQ

[Intro]
Em

[Verse]
Em Am
Bring me birds with broken wings, Men with all the answers,
B Em
People who have killed,Give me incurable cancers.
Em Am
Bring me beaches slicked in oil, Give me disregard for doubt,
B Em
Street lights shine on broken Roads where no one is about.
Em Am
I want that hopeless green depression, Punishments without a cause,
B Em
Give me impotent obsession, And disregard for laws.
Em Am
I want the trees in single file, Bring the corpse of something rare,
B Em
Show me children who are sinners, Show me mounds of human hair.

[Chorus]
Am Em
I climbed up the mountain just to kill my son,
Am Em
An angel tried to stop me with a ram,
Am Em
Well he said “your mind’s infected”, But I said “you lack perspective”,
B
You gotta walk the bottom if you wanna see the top,
Em Am B Em
La da da da, La da da da, La da da da da da da da da da
Em Am B Em
La da da da, La da da da, La da da da da da da da da da

[Verse]
Em Am
Give me poison I can swim in, Water I can’t drink,
B Em
Wheels that won’t stop spinning, Teach my children not to think.
Em Am
I want the fruit that tastes like nothing, extra thumbs for every crook,
B Em
Give me lessons without questions, a mild disdain for books.
