Magpie Chords

   
This is pretty much all correct. I am a little uncertain of the D chord in the verse. If 
D doesn't work for you, try a B minor.

Em                      G
Feed the kittens in the kitchen

Set food out for the strays

Em                   G
Fill your mouth with berries
       D                Em
By the full light of the moon

Work all night if you have to

The magpie comes at noon

Em               G
Shore up the crucifixes
          D                Em
Above the archways and the doors
    Em                  G
The magpie will come at midday
             D              Em
And you will go down on all fours

Em                               G
And when the cherry's white with blossoms
   D            Em
Be ready and be brave
Em                   G
And remember what we had here
               D                 Em
When there was something left to save
