Lord God Bird

• C#m

Tuning: Standard 

I have only jotted down the melody and the chords for this one, since I’m no good at  
Think it’s correct, though. 


Intro: 

 (C#m scale) C#m                               G#m 

                  F#m        E         C#m       B 


Verse 1: 
             C#m              G#m 
In the delta sun, down in Arkansas 
          F#m      E              C#m    B 
It’s the great god bird with it’s alter call 
                  C#m                  G#m 
And the sewing machine, the industrial god 
       F#m     E            C#m     B 
On the great bayou were they saw it fall 
        F#m        E           C#m     B 
It’s the great god bird down in Arkansas 
                   A   E               A    E 
And the hunters beware, or the fishers fall 
       A      G#m  F#m   E        B             F#m 
And paradise might close from its safe flight flawed 
         A    G#m  F#m   E         B (let ring) 
It’s the great god bird through it all

Verse 2: 
                    C#m                   G#m 
And the watchers beware, lest they see it fall 
        F#m         E            C#m      B 
And paradise might laugh when at last it falls 
                  A   E                A      E 
And the sewing machine, the industrial god 

         A     G#m F#m   E       B      F#m 
It’s the great god bird with it’s alter call 
              A     G#m F#m   E       B      F#m
