[Verse 1]
Fm C
Edna million in a drop dead suit
Fm
Dutch pink on a downtown train
C
Two dollar pistol but the gun won't shoot
Fm
I'm in the corner on the pouring rain
C
Sixteen men on a dead man's chest
Fm
I been drinking from the broken cup
C
Two pairs of pants and a mohair vest
Fm
I'm full of bourbon and I can't stand up
[Chorus]
Bbm Fm
Hey little bird, fly away home
C Fm
Your house is on fire, your children alone
Bbm Fm
Hey little bird, you fly away home
C Fm
Your house is on fire, your children alone
[Verse 2]
Fm C7
Schiffer broke a bottle on Morgan's head
Fm
I'm stepping on the devil's tail
C7
Across the stripes of a full moon's head
Fm
All through the bar's of a Cuban jail
C7
Bloody finger's on a purple knife
Fm
Flamingo drinking from a cocktail glass
C7
I'm on the lawn with someone else's wife
Fm
Admire the view from the top of the mast
[Chorus]
Bbm Fm
Hey little bird, fly away home
C Fm
Your house is on fire, your children alone
Bbm Fm
Hey little bird, you fly away home
C Fm
Your house is on fire, your children alone

Yellow sheets on a Hong Kong bed

Stazybo horn and a slingerland ride

To the carnival is what she said

A couple hundred dollars makes it dark inside

Edna million in a drop dead suit

Dutch pink on a downtown train
C7
Two dollar pistol but the gun won't shoot

I'm in the corner on the pouring rain
[Chorus]
