(intro) C5

(verse 1)
          C5              E5
There's a yellow flower, by your bed;
F5                    C5
 Sadly droopin' it's perfumed head.

C5               F5
 So you won't smell it;
  G5                F5
I know what you'll miss.

(chorus 1)
              C5              G5
And there's a hummingbird, a hummingbird,
  C5              F5
A hummingbird, A hummingbird.
             C5            G5        F5  C5
Oh there's a hummingbird, singing.

(verse 2)
C5
 There is the hat you made,
    E5
The clothes you wore;
F5                  C5
 Lying down on the cold dirty floor.

C5            F5
 The colours are fading;
        G5             F5
They'll never shine a-gain.

(chorus 2)
              C5              G5
And there's a hummingbird, a hummingbird,
  C5              F5
A hummingbird, A hummingbird.
             C5            G5        F5  C5
Oh there's a hummingbird, singing.

(verse 3)
C5                E5
 Now the road is turning grey;
F5                       C5
 There's a shadow where you once lay.

C5               F5
 They'll find it to-morrow,
    G5                F5
And think you went a-lone.

(chorus 3)
              C5              G5
And there's a hummingbird, a hummingbird,
  C5              F5
A hummingbird, A hummingbird.
             C5            G5       F5  C5
Oh there's a hummingbird, crying.
