Guitar chords with lyrics
Tuning: G C E A (G C E A)
HADES:
Am F Em Am
Hey, little songbird, give me a song
Am F G E7
I’m a busy man and I can’t stay long
Am F C E7
I got clients to call, I got orders to fill
Am F C E7
I got walls to build, I got riots to quell
Am F E7
And they’re giving me hell back in Hades
Am F Em Am
Hey, little songbird, cat got your tongue?
Am F G E7
Always a pity for one so pretty and young
Am F C E7
When poverty comes to clip your wings
Am F C E7
And knock the wind right out of your lungs
Am F E7
Hey, nobody sings on empty

EURYDICE:
F G M
Strange is the call of this strange man
C Am F Am
I want to fly down and feed at his hand
C C E7
I want a nice soft place to land
C E7 Am
I wanna lie down forever
HADES:
Am F Em Am
Hey, little songbird, you got something fine
Am F G E7
You’d shine like a diamond down in the mine
Am F C E7
And the choice is yours if you’re willing to choose
Am F C E7
Seeing as you’ve got nothing to lose
Am F E7
And I could use a canary
EURYDICE:
F G C
Suddenly nothing is as it was
C Am F Am
Where are you now, Orpheus?
C G E7
Wasn’t it gonna be the two of us
C E7 Am
Weren’t we birds of a feather?
HADES:
Am F Em Am
Hey, little songbird, let me guess
Am F G (E7)
He’s some kind of poet and he’s penniless
Am F C E7 G
Give him your hand, he’ll give you his hand-to-mouth
Am F C E7
He’ll write you a poem when the power’s out
Am F E7
Hey, why not fly south for the winter?
Am F Em Am
Hey, little songbird, look all around you
Am F G E7
See how the vipers and vultures surround you
Am F C E7
They’ll take you down, they’ll pick you clean
Am F C E7
If you stick around such a desperate scene
Am F E7
See, people get mean when the chips are down
