Little Jazz Bird Chords by Blossom Dearie

[G] _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _ [Am] [B] Into [Gm] a [A] cabaret [G#] [Em] one [D] fatal [E] day [C] a little songbird [Dm] flew
[G] _ Found _
[Am] [B] it [Gm] so [A] very gay.
[Fm] He [Em] thought [D] he'd [E] stay just to [G] get [D] a [Em] bird's [C]-eye view
_ When he heard the [Am] jazz band playing
He [C] was happy as [F#] a lark
[G] To each measure [E] he kept swaying [C] and he stayed till [G] after dark
_ [Am] Then [B] back [Gm] to the [A] land he knew
[G#] [Em] Thrill [D] through and through [C] he sailed on [F] in the air
[G] _ _ [C] [B] Called [Gm] all the [A] other birds [G#] [Gm] and [D] in these words started [Cm] gurgling [D] [B] then
_ [C] _ _
_ [D#] _ [D] _ [C] _ _ [Em] _ I'm a [C] little jazz bird [Dm] and I'm [G] telling you to be one [C] [G] too
_ _ [Cm] _ _ [Gm] _
[C] For a little jazz bird [Dm] is in [G] heaven when it's singing blue
[Em] _ I [A] _ [G] _ [Cm] _
[C#] _ [F] _ _ say it with [G] regret
_ [Dm] But [G] you're out [C] of date
[E] _
_ [Am] You ain't [Em] heard [D] nothing yet
[Em] Till you [D] sing [A] the [Dm] fate _
[G] When [C] the going is rough you [F] will [Dm] find your [Em] troubles all have [C] flown
[G] _ _ _ [Cm] _ _
[Gm] _ [C] If you wobble your stuff [F] like the moaning of a [Gm] saxophone
_ [A] _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ [F] _ _ Just try my [Em] recipe
_ [F] And [G] I'm sure [E] you'll [A] agree
[F#] _ [C] That a little jazz bird [Dm] is the only [G] kind of bird [C] to [E] be
[D] _ [C#] _ [C] _ _
[G] I
_ _ _ _ _ [Dm] _
[G] _ [Am] _ _ [B] _ _ _ [Cm] _ _
[Gm] _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _
[G] _ [Dm] _ [Em] _ _ [G] _ _ [A] _ [G] _
[Cm] _ [C#] _ [F] _ _ _ Say it [G] with regret
[Dm] _ [G] But you're out of [C] date
[E] _ [C] You _ _ [Em] ain't heard [D] nothing [Em] yet
Till [F#] you [Dm] sing the fate
[G] _ When [C] the going is rough you [F] will [Em] find your troubles all have [G] flown
_ _ [C] _ [G] _
[Gm] _ If [C] you wobble your stuff like [F] the [B] moaning of a [Gm] saxophone
_ _ [C] _ _
_ _ [F] _ _ Just [Dm] try my [G] recipe
_ [Dm] _ [B] And I'm sure [E] you'll [C#] agree
[Am] _ [Em] [Am] That a little jazz bird [Dm] is the only [Em] kind of bird [C] to [E] be
