F#m       G#m          C#m
I was not woken by the rooster
                                      (the chords stay the
F#m        G#m           C#m
Nor by the crows's tough song
F#m               G#m          
But  the midnight cry
        C#m         F#m       
   Of a blood red bird          
        G#m             C#m
Brought this sleeplessness on

F#m       G#m          
Threw open the window
C#m
Moonlight on a Black garden of thorns
F#m       G#m          C#m
And the cool wind on my sweat

F#m       
What cries home
G#m          C#m
Where cries from
F#m       G#m                C#m
A blood red bird lies in the woods
F#m       G#m          C#m
Weeping into dead leaves
F#m       G#m          C#m
With wing thorn and jutting bone
F#m       G#m          C#m
What hand bent it to bust
To be useless
What hand I could have done it
With two fingers

A blood red bird
A blood red bird

We can continually sink into 
        Each other
Just deep enough to rip out
        A bit more flesh
When we move away
A scarf of skin trailing out behind

Like an arrow 
I was only passing through
A blood red bird
A blood red bird
