[Intro] C Am Dm G C Am Dm G [Verse 1] C Cemetery pigeons, checking Am out the graves Dm Cemetery pigeons, leaving little footprints on G the dirt Beside the paved walkway C Cemetery pigeons, are you Am from abroad? Dm Do you ever think about the pigeons G that you've lost? Am I don't wanna be here I don't wanna go F7 home G I don't wanna take up Em any more space I don't wanna just Am E7 b*tch and moan Am Cemetery pigeons, house C pets of the dead G Where do you go when the lake is frozen And you've got Am no stupid G red hat for your Am A7 little grey head?
