      E                                     A                         E  A
I'll never know what you find when you open up your letterbox tomorrow
                  E                                      A
'Cause the little bird never tells me anything I want to know, she's my best
                        E  A
friend, she's a sparrow
                     F#m                                     A
And I'll never never know what you never never never want to know when you know

   If I had a pair of eyes in the back of my head for each time
              E
You forgot to take out all the things you forgot to talk about
A                                    E   A
When you took a bite out of my spine
               F#m                                    A                              E  A
I would have a lot of eyes on the other side wouldn't I? Wouldn't that just be fine?

[Chorus]
B               C#m               A                     B
Too late or soon   to make noise about love and there's no time for sorrow
