You broke the bread
C7 F
You drank the wine
F Bb C7 C7sus4
Your lip was bleeding but it was fine
Come on inside, babe,
across the line
I love you more than I
F Bb C7 F
But then this bird just flew away
Dm A7 A Bb
She was never meant to stay
Gm
Oh to keep her caged
C7 F
Would just delay the spring
Verse 2:
You broke your word
Now there's a lie
We had a deal that you would try
Come on inside girl, I think it's time
High time you drew the line
Chorus:
But then this bird just flew away
While I looked the other way
Oh to keep her caged
Would just delay the spring

Verse 3:
You broke my soul, dear
You stole the plot
You left an empty shot
But there's nothing left here
Cos you took the lot
An empty cage is all I've got
Chorus:
But then this bird just flew away
While I looked the other way
Oh to keep her caged
Would just delay the spring
Oh to keep her caged
Would just delay the spring
