Intro:
  CDm Am
|   |  | x2  The same pattern persists through the verses
Verse:
C                 Dm                  Am
Take what you need and leave the rest
No I don't mind, No I don't mind
                       C                   Dm              Am
I'll get this off my chest there's nowhere else I'd rather be
C            Dm             Am
Come flying in, and then again
I'm not alone enough to pretend that 
               C                    Dm                Am
I've seen the world there's nowhere else you'd rather be
Chorus:
              Dm
Like a hummingbird in flight you are
Am                         Dm
Hovering, hovering round me
                              Am
That I would need you to fly away

Don't fly away
Verse:
C           Dm                Am
What can I say? You have to wait
I find it hard to say it to articulate
   C                         Dm               Am
I know that there's nowhere else you'd rather be
C             Dm              Am
It seems so clear I know it true
That all I wanna do is make love to you
   C                         Dm                Am
I know that there's no where else you'd rather be

C               Dm        Am
Birds are in around my head, things you have done
      C              Dm                       Am
The words you have said, my memory after you left
                   Am (stay on Am until chorus)
I try but I can't forget
Chorus:
              Dm
Like a hummingbird in flight you are
