The Handsome Family - Passenger Pigeons Chords & Tabs

G                    Em
Ever since you moved out
           C             G
I've been living in the park
            G           Em   
I'd rather talk to the wind
 C              G
Than an empty apartment

       G              Em
And I wish I could forget
       C                 G
How a billion birds flew in
       G            Em
To my hollow dying heart
     C                         G
The first time I touched your arm

 Em                G       Am        C
Once there were a billion passenger pigeons
    G                 Em           C
So many flew by they darkened the sky

     G                     Em
But they were clubbed and shot
 C                 G
Netted gassed and burned
        G                Em
Until there was nothing left
     C              G
But piles of empty nests

Em          G   Am      C
I can't believe how easily
   G                      C
A billion birds can disappear

     G             Em
The park is empty now
     C        G
It's so cold out
     G              Em
And all the paddle boats
     C               G
Are covered up with snow

     G                 Em
But I'm still sitting here
 C               G
Drinking frozen beer
      G               Em
And throwing potato chips
 C                     G
On to the white snow drifts
         G             Em
Just in case a bird decides
    C                   G
To fly through here tonight


Em          G   Am      C
I can't believe how easily
   G                      C
A billion birds can disappear
   Em          G   Am      C
No I can't believe how easily
   G                      C
A billion birds can disappear
