Travis - The Cage

D  G*
You broke the bread
A7  D
You drank the wine
D              G                  A7  A7sus4
Your lip was bleeding but it was fine
Come on inside, babe,
across the line
I love you more than I...

Chorus:

D              G         A7    D
But then this bird just flew away
Bm       F#7   F#       G
She was never meant to stay
       Em
Oh to keep her caged
       A7              D
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

Bridge: D C Em D   D C Em A7sus4

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
