[Verse 1]
Dm A#
Sometimes I get im-patient
Dm G7
but she cools me without words
Dm Eb9
and she comes so sweet and softly
A# A7
my hummingbird and have you heard
Dm A#
that I thought my life had ended
Dm G7
but I find that it's just be-gun
Dm
cause she gets me where I live
Eb9
I'll give all I have to give
A# A#/C Fsus F
I'm talking about that humming-bird
[Chorus]
A# F/A
oh she's little and she loves me
C/G F
too much for words to say
C/E Eb D
when I see her in the morning sleeping
A# F/A
she's little and she loves me
C/G F
to my lucky day
F/G A#/C C A7
hummingbird don't fly away
[Verse 2]
Dm A#
When I'm feeling wild and lonesome
Dm G7
she knows the words to say
Dm Eb9
and she gives me a little under-standing
A#
in her special way
A7
and I just have to say
Dm A#
in my life I loved a woman
Dm G7
because she's more than I de-serve
Dm
and she gets me where I live
Eb
I'll give all I have to give
A# A#/C F
I'm talking about that humming-bird
[Chorus]
A# F/A
oh she's little and she loves me
C/G F
too much for words to say
C/E Eb D
when I see her in the morning sleeping
A# F/A
she's little and she loves me
C/G F
to my lucky day
F/G A#/C C
hummingbird don't fly away
[Coda (repeat and fade)]
A# F C
Don’t fly away – ay - away
