Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][G][C][G]

[Verse 1]
[C]Wishing that
something would [G]happen
A [C]change in this [G]place
'cause I'm [Em]tearing off the
[C]fancy [G]wrapping
Find an empty [Em]pack[C]age[G]

[Verse 2]
[C]Take for a while your [G]trumpet
from your lip
[C]Loosen your hold, [G]loosen your grip
On your [C]old [Em]ways [G]that have fallen
out of step
[Em]In a changing [D]time[C]
Hoist a new [G]flag[C]
Hoist a new [G]flag

[Interlude 1]
[C][G][C][G]

[Verse 3]
[C]Angry sun burn [G]down
[C]Judging us [G]all
[C]Guilty of neg[G]lect and disrespect
[C]And thinking small
[G]And [C]death by boredom
[G]And dea[C]th by gre[G]ed
If we [C]can't stop [G]taking
[C]More than [G]we need

[Verse 4]
[C]Across the fractured [G]the landscape
I [C]see the same [G]things
[C]Tired [G]ideas
[C]Birds without wings
[G][A]

[Verse 5]
[C]Birds without [G]wings[Asus4][A]
[C]Birds [G]without wings

[Verse 6]
But [C]these are [G]just thoughts
On [C]lackluster [G]times
And [C]I've no interest
[G]In excus[C]es you[G] can find

[Verse 7]
Like you've [C]had a hard [G]day
Now you're [C]too tired to [G]care
Now you're [C]too tired [G]to care
You've [C]had a hard [G]day

[Verse 8]
[C]Well across the fractured [G]landscape
I [C]see the same [G]things
[C]Tired ideas, [G]broken values
[C]Many with the notion
That to [G]share is to lose
A [C]hollow people [G]bound by a lack
Of [C]imagination [G]an d too
much looking back
[C]Without the courage
[G]To give a new thing [Em]a chance
[C]Grounded [D]by [Asus4]this igno[G]rance[Em]

[Verse 9]
When the [D]cat [A]comes[C]
[G]We're just[A]

[Verse 10]
[C]Birds without [G]wings

[Verse 11]
[A]
[C]Birds [G]without [A]wings
[C]Birds without wings
