Dido – Blackbird chords

[Verse I]
           Dm                          E                AmHe put the coffee in the cup and with milk he filled it up
         Dm                        E7            AmHe added sugar and I never knew he liked it like that
            Dm                           E           AmHe took his coat from the hook and his scarf and his hat
       Dm                         E7              AmAnd he put down a key and said I won’t be needing that
Am(Instrument)

       Dm                         E7                AmAnd he turned and smiled and said that explained it all
       Dm                          E          AmAnd he walked down the hall and he opened the door
    Dm        E           FAnd said I’ll call, I’ll call

[Chorus]
C   G       Dm             AmAhh haa Why do I bring you love
     C        G              E7When all you give me back is pain
C   G        Dm              AmHaa ahh  Why do we search it out
    C        G                   E7To watch you wash your hands and walk away

[Verse II]
              Dm                     E     AmNow there’s a black black black bird in my chest
        Dm      E         AmAll the flatter all caged in
Am(Instrument)

Dm                             E            AmWanting to break free with the wolves in my head
       Dm                       E     FYou’re tearing every worse thing, I should have said

[Chorus]
C         G       Dm             AmAhhhhhhhh haa Why do I bring you love
     C        G              E7When all you give me back is pain
C   G        Dm              AmHaa ahh  Why do we search it out
    C        G                   E7To watch you wash your hands and walk away

[Bridge]
                  Dm             EmWe’re like the strangers we were
              CWhen we first met
        E7                        AmBut the pain in strangers had the end
    Dm              Em                 CAnd all that remains   is a day without plans
     E7The loneliness and the forever lost

C - G - Dm - Am
C - G - E7 - E

[Chorus] x2
C   G       Dm             AmAhh haa Why do I bring you love
     C        G              E7When all you give me back is pain
C   G        Dm              AmHaa ahh  Why do we search it out
    C        G                   E7To watch you wash your hands and walk away
