Ryan Adams Nightbirds I just heard this song and WOW, another great Ryan Adams tune. This one is fairly easy to play. I use open power chords to play this song but you can use basic chords. Please leave a good rating, thanks! Tune down to half step. , , , , , , Out under the stars dodging them like cars, baby Cause when you gotta move, you gotta move () Whatever that it was you were thinking of baby You certainly not thinking of that now And night birds singing An empty tune In an empty house, in an empty room An empty moment Oh the nightbirds singing () We were supposed to rise above But we sink Into the ocean I feel like a body stuffed into a trunk From the million years of lying and getting drunk () The people here inside me they are loud and in the night They scream and smash the windows when they fight And nightbirds singing An empty tune In an empty house, in an empty room And empty feelings when it comes too soon We were supposed to rise above We were supposed to rise above But we sink Into the ocean (x4)
