[Verse 1]
When the Dsun in the morning peeps Gover the hill
and A7kisses the roses 'round Dmy windowsill;
then my Dheart fills with gladness when GI hear the trill
of the A7birds in the treetops on DMockin' Bird Hill.
[Chorus]
Tra-la-Dla, twiddly-dee-dee, it Ggives me a Dthrill
to A7wake up in the morning to the DMockingbird's trill.
Tra-la-Dla, twiddly-dee-dee, there's Gpeace and good Dwill,
you're A7welcome as the flowers on DMockin' Bird Hill.

Got a Dthree-cornered plow and an Gacre to till
and a A7mule that I bought for a Dten dollar-bill.
There's a Dtumble-down shack and a Grusty old mill,
but it's A7my Home Sweet Home up on DMockin' Bird Hill.
[Chorus]
