[Verse 1]
Am F
Sometimes I get im-patient
Am D7
but she cools me without words
Am A#9
and she comes so sweet and softly
F E7
my hummingbird and have you heard
Am F
that I thought my life had ended
Am D7
but I find that it's just be-gun
Am
cause she gets me where I live
A#9
I'll give all I have to give
F F/G Csus C
I'm talking about that humming-bird
[Chorus]
F C/E
oh she's little and she loves me
G/D C
too much for words to say
G/B A# A
when I see her in the morning sleeping
F C/E
she's little and she loves me
G/D C
to my lucky day
C/D F/G G E7
hummingbird don't fly away
[Verse 2]
Am F
When I'm feeling wild and lonesome
Am D7
she knows the words to say
Am A#9
and she gives me a little under-standing
F
in her special way
E7
and I just have to say
Am F
in my life I loved a woman
Am D7
because she's more than I de-serve
Am
and she gets me where I live
A#
I'll give all I have to give
F F/G C
I'm talking about that humming-bird
[Chorus]
F C/E
oh she's little and she loves me
G/D C
too much for words to say
G/B A# A
when I see her in the morning sleeping
F C/E
she's little and she loves me
G/D C
to my lucky day
C/D F/G G
hummingbird don't fly away
