Verse 1
D
The landlady, his husband,
came up to town today
G
Since he left them both ten years ago
D
to serve the ministry
The dark down road of his approach
Am
D
and constant rain was drenched
G
The tenant's boy said, do you do?
A
D
Then swore in French
Did you teach this little child
these curses on my soul?
G
We should both be shut
D
down in the cold
That's the way to treat a child
who cries out in the night
G
And a woman who teaches
A
D
wrong from right
G
Oh, he's a bad old bird
D
And he's the living of an evil world
G
He's a bad old bird
D
There needs to live another day,
whoa
A
D
There's a place where time stands still
A
D
If you keep taking these little pink pills,
whoa
Hush your mouth, you hypocrite
It's humor, cut her deep
G
The tight -lipped leer of judgment
D
That had seen her love deserted
A
D
just like sleep filthy words on children's lips
are better my dear spouse
G
than if I were to speak my
A
D
mind about this house
G
oh, he's a bad little bird
D
and he's livin' up a little low
G
he's a bad little bird
D
and he's livin' up a little low
A
D
There's a place where time stands still
A
D
You keep takin' these little pink pills
C
G
Am
Well, on the first floor
there were two old maids
G
And each one wishin' that
C
the other was afraid
Am
And next door to them
was a man so mild
G
Till he dropped out the head
C
of a visitor's child
F
He danced upon the bonfire
Swallowed sleeping pills like dreams
With a bottle of sweet sherry that
C
G
Everything re deems
C
F
Woah -oh, he's a battered old bird
C
And he's living up there
Woah -oh -oh -oh -oh
F
He's a battered old bird
C
And he's living up there
Woah -oh -oh -oh -oh
G
There's a place where time stands still
C
You keep takin' these little big pills,
whoa -whoa -whoa
Am
And on the second floor
is the Macintosh man
G
He's in his overcoats,
C
marrin' out of them
Am
And then the typewriter's
rattlin' all through the night
G
C
He's beggin' you for breakfast time
F
He says, one day I'll throw
away all of my cares
And it is always Christmas
C
G
C
in a cupboard at the top of the stairs
F
Woah, he's a bad little bird
C
And he's a -living up there,
woah, woah
F
He's a bad little bird
C
And he's a -living up there, woah, woah
G
And there's a place where
time stands still
He'll keep takin' these
C
little pig pills
D
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Well, here's a boy, developed a wise
Who's gonna do big things
G
I guess that's what they all say
D
And that's how the trouble begins
I've seen them rise and fall
through their big deals and smalls
G
And he better have a dream
A
D
that goes beyond four walls
Bm
You think he should be sent outside
A
D
playing with the traffic
G
Asus4
When pieces of him are already
A
scattered in the attic
F
Pieces of him are already
G
scattered in the at tic
F
He's a bad old bird,
C
and he's a -living out there
F
He's a bad old bird,
C
and he's a -living out there
G
There's a place where time stands still
C
If you keep taking these little big pills
