Intro:
C
Verse 1:
          C              Em
There's a yellow flower, by your bed;
F                    C
 Sadly drooping it's perfumed head.
Cmaj7         Fmaj7       G                Fmaj7
 So you won't smell it; I know what you'll miss.

And there's a hummingbird, a hummingbird,
  C              F
A             A
 hummingbird,  hummingbird.
             C            G       F
Oh there's a hummingbird, singing.
Verse 2:
             C                 Em
There is the hat you made, the clothes you wore;
F                  C
 Lying down on the cold dirty floor.
Cmaj7            Fmaj7           G             Fmaj7
 The colours are fading; they'll never shine a-gain.
Chorus 2:
              C              G
And there's a hummingbird, a hummingbird,
  C              F
A             A
 hummingbird,  hummingbird.

 Now the road, it's turning grey;
F                       C
 There's a shadow where you once lay.
Cmaj7               Fmaj7       G                Fmaj7
 They'll find it to-morrow, and think you went a-lone.
Chorus 3:
              C              G
But there's a hummingbird, a hummingbird,

 hummingbird,  hummingbird.
