[Verse 1]
Gm Eb
Sometimes I get im-patient
Gm C7
but she cools me without words
Gm Ab9
and she comes so sweet and softly
Eb D7
my hummingbird and have you heard
Gm Eb
that I thought my life had ended
Gm C7
but I find that it's just be-gun
Gm
cause she gets me where I live
Ab9
I'll give all I have to give
Eb Eb/F A#sus A#
I'm talking about that humming-bird
[Chorus]
Eb A#/D
oh she's little and she loves me
F/C A#
too much for words to say
F/A Ab G
when I see her in the morning sleeping
Eb A#/D
she's little and she loves me
F/C A#
to my lucky day
A#/C Eb/F F D7
hummingbird don't fly away
[Verse 2]
Gm Eb
When I'm feeling wild and lonesome
Gm C7
she knows the words to say
Gm Ab9
and she gives me a little under-standing
Eb
in her special way
D7
and I just have to say
Gm Eb
in my life I loved a woman
Gm C7
because she's more than I de-serve
Gm
and she gets me where I live
Ab
I'll give all I have to give
Eb Eb/F A#
I'm talking about that humming-bird
[Chorus]
Eb A#/D
oh she's little and she loves me
F/C A#
too much for words to say
F/A Ab G
when I see her in the morning sleeping
Eb A#/D
she's little and she loves me
F/C A#
to my lucky day
A#/C Eb/F F
hummingbird don't fly away
[Coda (repeat and fade)]
Eb A# F
Don’t fly away – ay - away
