[Verse 1]
C#m A
Sometimes I get im-patient
C#m F#7
but she cools me without words
C#m D9
and she comes so sweet and softly
A G#7
my hummingbird and have you heard
C#m A
that I thought my life had ended
C#m F#7
but I find that it's just be-gun
C#m
cause she gets me where I live
D9
I'll give all I have to give
A A/B Esus E
I'm talking about that humming-bird
[Chorus]
A E/G#
oh she's little and she loves me
B/F# E
too much for words to say
B/D# D C#
when I see her in the morning sleeping
A E/G#
she's little and she loves me
B/F# E
to my lucky day
E/F# A/B B G#7
hummingbird don't fly away
[Verse 2]
C#m A
When I'm feeling wild and lonesome
C#m F#7
she knows the words to say
C#m D9
and she gives me a little under-standing
A
in her special way
G#7
and I just have to say
C#m A
in my life I loved a woman
C#m F#7
because she's more than I de-serve
C#m
and she gets me where I live
D
I'll give all I have to give
A A/B E
I'm talking about that humming-bird
[Chorus]
A E/G#
oh she's little and she loves me
B/F# E
too much for words to say
B/D# D C#
when I see her in the morning sleeping
A E/G#
she's little and she loves me
B/F# E
to my lucky day
E/F# A/B B
