Cohen's Bird On A Wire by Neville Bros

Like a bird on the wire,
Like a (1)__________ in a midnight choir
I (2)________ tried in my way to be free.
Like a worm on a hook,
Like a (3)____________ from some old fashioned book
I have saved all my ribbons for thee.
If I, if I (4)________ (5)________ unkind,
I (6)________ that you can just let it go by.
If I, if I have been untrue
I (7)________ you (8)________ it was (9)__________ to you.

Like a baby, stillborn,
Like a beast with his horn
I have (10)________ everyone who (11)______________ out for me.
But I (12)__________ by (13)________ song
And by all that I have done wrong
I will (14)________ it all up to thee.
I saw a beggar (15)______________ on his wooden crutch,
He (16)________ to me, "You must not ask for so much."
And a pretty woman leaning in her darkened door,
She cried to me, "Hey, why not ask for more?"

Oh (17)________ a bird on the wire,
Like a (18)__________ in a (19)________________ choir
I (20)________ (21)__________ in my way to be free.
