Bird Set Free

Sia


Tom: Em

Em
 Clipped wings
                  Bm
I was a broken thing
       C
 Had a voice

 Had a voice but I could not sing...
           G
 You would worn me down
           D              B
I struggled on the ground
Em                            Bm
So lost, the line had been crossed
     C
Had a voice, had a voice but I could not talk
    G
You held me down
              D     B
I struggle to fly now


[Chorus]

       Em                                 Bm
But there's a scream inside that we all try to hide
   C
We hold on so tight, we cannot deny
     G                    D       B
Eats us alive, oh it eats us alive
 Em                                      Bm
Yes, there's a scream inside that we all try to hide
   C                                      G
We hold on so tight, but I don't wanna die, no

I don't wanna die
               D  B
I don't wanna die


[Verse]

         Em
I'm not gon' care if I sing off key
Bm      C
I find myself in my melodies
             G
I sing for love, I sing for me
             D
I shout it out like a bird set free
   B        Em
No I don't care if I sing off key
   Bm      C
I find myself in my melodies
             G
I sing for love, I sing for me
                D                   B   Em  Bm   C  G
I'll shout it out like a bird set free!
                D                   B   Em  Bm   C  G
I'll shout it out like a bird set free!
                D                   B
I'll shout it out like a bird set free!


[Pre-Chorus]

Em
Now I fly, hit the high notes
Bm        C
I have a voice, have a voice, hear me roar tonight
     G
You held me down
          D          B
But I fought back loud


[Chorus]

       Em                                 Bm
But there's a scream inside that we all try to hide
   C
We hold on so tight, we cannot deny
     G                    D        B
Eats us alive, oh it eats us alive
 Em                                      Bm
Yes, there's a scream inside that we all try to hide
   C                                      G
We hold on so tight, but I don't wanna die, no

I don't wanna die
              D    B
I don't wanna die


[Bridge/Outro]

         Em
I'm not gon' care if I sing off key
Bm      C
I find myself in my melodies
             G
I sing for love, I sing for me
             D
I shout it out like a bird set free
   B        Em
No I don't care if I sing off key
   Bm      C
I find myself in my melodies
             G
I sing for love, I sing for me
                D                   B   Em   Bm  C  G
