      A(add B)   G6                 F#7(add B) - repeat sequence
     Rain bird dives throught the hole
     In a broken guitar
     Rain bird sings a song so sad in blue
     Like a stranded insect 
     Stuck in a bowl of glue
    
     F#7(add B)                      - stick 
     He tries to fly
     But he will die
                            F#
     If he ever leaves the zoo

                                      - restart A(add B) sequence
     Rain Bird / Rain Bird
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/l/love_and_rockets/rainbird_crd.html ]
     Rain bird swoops through the
     Chimney pots and rain
     Rain bird flies to the edge of a gilded cage
     Hiding in the spotlights
     Of a famous stage

     F#7(add B)                        - stick again
     He tries to become invisible
                                  F#
     Whilst stealing the front page

                                       - restart A(add B) sequence
     Rain Bird / Rain Bird / Rain Bird / Rain Bird

     F#
     When you were a boy
                 Bsus2
     You used to wish for this
                  F#
     But like the cat who turns his nose
     Bsus2
     Up at the dish
     F#                    Bsus2
     Now that you have it
     You want to give it away

                                     - no chord
     When you had to work so hard
     Slogging for a pittance
     In a boot and shoe yard
 
     F#                     Bsus2
     That's when you wanted
     What you now give away
     
      F#       Bsus2      E          - no lyrics

                                     - repeat A(add B) sequence
     Rain Bird
     You're all the rage, bird
     Rain Bird
     You're all the rage, bird
                                     - end on F#
     -David J
