Rain bird dives throught the hole
In a broken guitar
Rain bird sings a song so sad in blue
Like a stranded insect
Stuck in a bowl of glue
F#7(add B) - stick
He tries to fly
But he will die
F#
If he ever leaves the zoo
- restart A(add B) sequence
Rain Bird / Rain Bird
Rain bird swoops through the
Chimney pots and rain
Rain bird flies to the edge of a gilded cage
Hiding in the spotlights
Of a famous stage
F#7(add B) - stick again
He tries to become invisible
F#
Whilst stealing the front page
- restart A(add B) sequence
Rain Bird / Rain Bird / Rain Bird / Rain Bird
F#
When you were a boy
Bsus2
You used to wish for this
F#
But like the cat who turns his nose
Bsus2
Up at the dish
F# Bsus2
Now that you have it
You want to give it away
- no chord
When you had to work so hard
Slogging for a pittance
In a boot and shoe yard
F# Bsus2
That's when you wanted
What you now give away
F# Bsus2 E - no lyrics
- repeat A(add B) sequence
Rain Bird
You're all the rage, bird
Rain Bird
You're all the rage, bird
- end on F#
-David J
Check song for rhythm. Intro is A(add B) sequence x 2.

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official LOVE AND ROCKETS tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
