[Verse 1]
A#m Gb
Sometimes I get im-patient
A#m D#7
but she cools me without words
A#m Cb9
and she comes so sweet and softly
Gb F7
my hummingbird and have you heard
A#m Gb
that I thought my life had ended
A#m D#7
but I find that it's just be-gun
A#m
cause she gets me where I live
Cb9
I'll give all I have to give
Gb Gb/G# C#sus C#
I'm talking about that humming-bird
[Chorus]
Gb C#/F
oh she's little and she loves me
G#/D# C#
too much for words to say
G#/C Cb A#
when I see her in the morning sleeping
Gb C#/F
she's little and she loves me
G#/D# C#
to my lucky day
C#/D# Gb/G# G# F7
hummingbird don't fly away
[Verse 2]
A#m Gb
When I'm feeling wild and lonesome
A#m D#7
she knows the words to say
A#m Cb9
and she gives me a little under-standing
Gb
in her special way
F7
and I just have to say
A#m Gb
in my life I loved a woman
A#m D#7
because she's more than I de-serve
A#m
and she gets me where I live
Cb
I'll give all I have to give
Gb Gb/G# C#
I'm talking about that humming-bird
[Chorus]
Gb C#/F
oh she's little and she loves me
G#/D# C#
too much for words to say
G#/C Cb A#
when I see her in the morning sleeping
Gb C#/F
she's little and she loves me
G#/D# C#
to my lucky day
C#/D# Gb/G# G#
hummingbird don't fly away
[Coda (repeat and fade)]
Gb C# G#
Don’t fly away – ay - away
