[Intro 1]
[D][G][D][G]

[Verse 1]
[G]History's [D]made
its mark in an[G]ger
As everybody knows, it's what we [D]do
It's nothing [G]new

[Verse 2]
[G]The [D]next chords struck
are fault and fail[G]ure
And we both know that finger
points [A]on [G]cue[D]
There's blame for two
[G][A]

[Verse 3]
[G]
[D]Do you really want [G]him calling, Newo?
Do you really think he's
coming back [A]to [D]you?
Oh, once [G]the world stops spinning,
read that writing on [A]the wall[G][D]

[Verse 4]
[D]Another, [G]Newo?
Is there cushion just enough
to break [A]the fall[G][D]
Oh, don't you cry
Just [G]lie there baby, in the past

[Verse 5]
'Cause if you want it all
[G]Right now, hide your feathers
on the [D]back porch, baby
He's [A]coming home for-
[G]you've been such a [D]li [A]ar
[G]Hide your feathers,
little [D]back porch lady
Too [A]old enough to [G]cry your sorry
[D]eyes [A]out (over the [G]world)
Hear [D]me scream outside

[Verse 6]
your window
[G]I'm only here to make my peace
[A]with [G]you[D]
There's something new
[G]

[Verse 7]
Oh, it was [A]our [D]time, that day in our lives
[G]If I could do things different,
what would [A]I c[G]hoose?[D]
Oh, don't you cry, mama
[G]Please, don't cry mama

[Verse 8]
Oh, don't you cry, no, no
[G]Right now, hide your feathers
on the [D]back porch, baby
He's [A]coming home for-
[G]you've been such a [D]li [A]ar
[G]Hide your feathers,
little [D]back porch lady
Too [A]old enough to [G]cry your sorry
[D]eyes [A]out (over the world)

[Verse 9]
[Bb]No other, could wait for a
[G]lover to embrace, boy
When there's [D]no more room for love
You'll [Em]sell her off to the sharks

[Verse 10]
[Bb]No other, could wait for a
[G]lover to embrace, boy
When there's [D]no more room for love
You'll [Em]sell her off to the sharks

[G]Right now, hide your feathers
on [D]the back porch, baby
He's coming home for-

[A]Rig[G]ht now, hide your feathers
on the [D]back porch, baby
He's [A]coming home for-
[G]you've been such a [D]li [A]ar
[G]

Hide your feathers,
little [D]back porch lady
Too [A]old enough to [G]cry
