Watching Birds

• E

E                         F#m 
Oh well her eyes they hypnotised 
F#m                E 
Like a pair of headlights 
E                         F#m 
And I remember how she crashed 
F#m               E 
Headlong into my life 
E                         F#m 
So I said now close those eyes 
F#m                   E 
Stick a pin into this map 
E                           F#m 
And then she said now look around 
F#m                            A 
Because there'll be no looking back 

A  G G  E 

E                                   F#m 
Oh but I've been looking since that day 
F#m                 A      E 
Since the day we parted 
E                       F#m 
But you don't find happiness 
F#m             A         G    E 
When you're searching for it 
E                    F#m 
And I might have realised 
F#m                     A 
I was wasting precious time 
A                                                           A    E 
But I never had the chance to change the batteries in my watch 


E               A              E 
Oh and it's a Monday night in June 
E                  E 
And I should be sleeping 
E        A               E 
But it's so damn warm inside 
E                     E 
I'm in the garden dreaming 
E             A               E 
And I've got one chair for myself 
E                  F#m 
And another for my feet 
F#m      A             G       E 
Oh but I still don't feel complete 

E  

E                       F#m 
Well she calls me every day 
F#m                 A       E 
Just to touch base with me 
E                      F#m 
And the birds upon the wire 
F#m           A        G    E 
They feel our electricity 
E                        F#m 
And I watch them as they fly 
F#m                      A 
And she lifts me up with them 
A                    G      E 
Until I fall for her again 

E  E  E 

E                                   F#m 
Oh and I've been working since that day 
F#m                  A    E 
Since the day I left her 
E                         F#m 
I'm making money watching birds 
F#m                    A   E 
But I don't feel no richer 
E                    F#m 
And I should have realised 
F#m                    A 
I was wasting precious time 
A                                                          A    E 
But I never had the chance to change the batteries in my watch 


E             A               E 
Oh and it's a Monday night in June 
E 
And I should be sleeping 
E        A              E 
But it's so damn warm inside 
E 
I'm in the garden dreaming 
E            A             E 
And I've got one chair for myself 
E                  F#m 
And another for my feet 

F#m   A                   E 
But I still don't feel complete
