Ab
If you were a bluebird you'd be a sad one
               Db
I'd give you a true word (??)
But you've already had one
                Ab
If you were a bluebird,
          Eb
you'd be crying
Db               Ab
You'd be flying home
Ab
If you were a raindrop, 
You'd shine like a rainbow
                  Db
And if you were a train stop,
The conductor would sing low
              Ab
If you were a raindrop,
         Eb
You'd be falling
Db               Ab
You'd be calling home
Ab
If you were a hotel  honey 
You'd be a grand one
                  Db
But, if you hit a slow spell,
Do you think you could stand one
              Ab
If you were a hotel,
                      Eb
Well I'd lean on your doorbell
Db                Ab
I'd call you my home
Ab
If I was a highway,
I'd stretch alongside you
                  Db
I'd help you pass byways that had dissatisfied you
            Ab
If I was a highway,
            Eb
well I'd be stretchin
Db                 Ab
I'd be fetchin you home
