[Verse 1]
Em C
Sometimes I get im-patient
Em A7
but she cools me without words
Em F9
and she comes so sweet and softly
C B7
my hummingbird and have you heard
Em C
that I thought my life had ended
Em A7
but I find that it's just be-gun
Em
cause she gets me where I live
F9
I'll give all I have to give
C C/D Gsus G
I'm talking about that humming-bird
[Chorus]
C G/B
oh she's little and she loves me
D/A G
too much for words to say
D/F# F E
when I see her in the morning sleeping
C G/B
she's little and she loves me
D/A G
to my lucky day
G/A C/D D B7
hummingbird don't fly away
[Verse 2]
Em C
When I'm feeling wild and lonesome
Em A7
she knows the words to say
Em F9
and she gives me a little under-standing
C
in her special way
B7
and I just have to say
Em C
in my life I loved a woman
Em A7
because she's more than I de-serve
Em
and she gets me where I live
F
I'll give all I have to give
C C/D G
I'm talking about that humming-bird
[Chorus]
C G/B
oh she's little and she loves me
D/A G
too much for words to say
D/F# F E
when I see her in the morning sleeping
C G/B
she's little and she loves me
D/A G
to my lucky day
G/A C/D D
hummingbird don't fly away
