Kunci Gitar Sleeping At Last - Birdcage Religion

    E          B
So slowly I'm losing
    Abm        E
who I've sworn to be.
    E          B
a promise in pencil
    Abm                   E
that years have made so hard to read.
    E                     B
I've spent my life building walls
    Abm                   E
brick by brick and bruise by bruise...
    E          B          Abm        Gb
a birdcage religion that whispered me to sleep.

Instrumental: E B E B E B E B Gb

    E          B
but time is spinning silk
    Abm        E
that coils ruthlessly;
    E          B
with the devil's patience,
    Abm        E
it binds my hands so quietly
    Gb                 E     Gb
that soon it becomes a part of me.

Instrumental: E B E B E B E B Gb (2X)

    E          B             Abm            E
so soften these edges and straighten out my tie.
    E          B
and help me remember
    Abm                    E
the hope that I have compromised.

    Gb                E       Gb
please be a broken record for me.

Instrumental: E B E B E B E B Gb
