Cohen's Bird On A Wire by Neville Bros

Like a bird on the wire,
Like a drunk in a midnight choir
I have tried in my way to be free.
Like a worm on a hook,
Like a knight from some old fashioned book
I have (1)__________ all my ribbons for thee.
If I, if I have (2)________ unkind,
I hope (3)________ you can (4)________ let it go by.
If I, if I have (5)________ untrue
I (6)________ you know it was never to you.

Like a baby, stillborn,
Like a beast with his horn
I have torn (7)________________ who reached out for me.
But I swear by this song
And by all that I have done wrong
I will make it all up to thee.
I saw a beggar (8)______________ on his wooden crutch,
He said to me, "You (9)________ not ask for so much."
And a pretty (10)__________ leaning in her darkened door,
She cried to me, "Hey, why not ask for more?"

Oh like a bird on the wire,
Like a drunk in a midnight choir
I have tried in my way to be free.
