A D If I were a blue bird, I'd sing all day A E I'd sit on the shoulders of people in pain A D I'd sing a tune for the lonely and sad A E A Just to remind them that life ain't so bad A D If I were a blue bird I'd sing a song A E If I were a blue bird You'd sing along A D But I'm not a blue bird I'm sorry to say A E A Oh I'm gonna sing songs to you anyway A D If I were a blue bird, I'd sing while I fly A E All through the tree tops and then across the sky A D I'd sing to the ocean, I'd sing to the sun A E A Just so I'd teach them the songs that I've sung A D If I were a blue bird I'd sing a song A E If I were a blue bird You'd sing along A D But I'm not a blue bird I'm sorry to say A E A Oh I'm gonna sing songs to you anyway A D No I'm not a blue bird I'm sorry to say A E A But I'm gonna sing songs to you anyway
