[Verse 1]
D#m Cb
Sometimes I get im-patient
D#m G#7
but she cools me without words
D#m Fb9
and she comes so sweet and softly
Cb A#7
my hummingbird and have you heard
D#m Cb
that I thought my life had ended
D#m G#7
but I find that it's just be-gun
D#m
cause she gets me where I live
Fb9
I'll give all I have to give
Cb Cb/C# F#sus F#
I'm talking about that humming-bird
[Chorus]
Cb F#/A#
oh she's little and she loves me
C#/G# F#
too much for words to say
C#/F Fb D#
when I see her in the morning sleeping
Cb F#/A#
she's little and she loves me
C#/G# F#
to my lucky day
F#/G# Cb/C# C# A#7
hummingbird don't fly away
[Verse 2]
D#m Cb
When I'm feeling wild and lonesome
D#m G#7
she knows the words to say
D#m Fb9
and she gives me a little under-standing
Cb
in her special way
A#7
and I just have to say
D#m Cb
in my life I loved a woman
D#m G#7
because she's more than I de-serve
D#m
and she gets me where I live
Fb
I'll give all I have to give
Cb Cb/C# F#
I'm talking about that humming-bird
[Chorus]
Cb F#/A#
oh she's little and she loves me
C#/G# F#
too much for words to say
C#/F Fb D#
when I see her in the morning sleeping
Cb F#/A#
she's little and she loves me
C#/G# F#
to my lucky day
F#/G# Cb/C# C#
hummingbird don't fly away
[Coda (repeat and fade)]
