[Verse 1]
E Emaj7 C#m7
It's nesting season which means a lesser goldfinch
C#m C Am7
comes to my bedroom window every morning between seven and nine.
E Emaj7 C#m7
And then she fights with the bird inside my window,
C#m C Am A7
not knowing that she's fighting herself and her territory is fine.
[Post-verse]
G# G#7 C#m
And when I watch her I wonder if she'll ever know
G# F# G# A
that all her worries are nothing but a trick of the light,
G# G#7 C#m C#m7 G#7 G#
and she could save most of her energy if she simply just chose not to fight
[Verse 2]
E Emaj7 C#m7 C#m
And then I think of myself and all my worries my stressors and my hurries,
C Am7 E
maybe the biggest ones are self imposed
Emaj7 C#m7 N.C.
Or maybe my window goldfinch knows something that I don't.
N.C
So just to be safe i suppose I'll
[Chorus]
E Emaj7
FIGHT EVERY REFLECTION I SEE!
C#m7 C#m
'Cause it could just be me,
G7 F7
or it could be another me that’s stuck inside and tryin’ to get free.
E Emaj7
DON’T YOU KNOW I’M READY TO BRAWL?
C#m7 C#m G7
Just in case there’s a small chance that one of them is a doppelganger
F7 F#m G#
that wants to steal all of my seeds and my sticks!
G#7 F# G#
They’re my needs, I can’t fix my nest if this handsome asshole
F# G#
keeps on making faces at me!
E Emaj7 C#m7 C#m
Not a bird, I’m a man, but I will, and I can
F#m G#
punch you right in the throat if you get too close just wait and see!
[Verse 3]
E Emaj7 C#m7 C#m
And so I’m grateful my favorite lesser goldfinch keeps tapping at my window
C Am7 E
because I think it is surely a sign
Emaj7 C#m7
that if keep up with my self sabotaging,
C#m C Am7 E
it’s actually productive, and it means that everything will be fine.
