[G] [Cm]
I, I, [Dm]
[D] [G] I
[Ab]
[A] That's [G] what I [C] always [Db] hear [F] when [Bb] you sigh
[Gm] Never in my wordland [Bb] could there be ways to [Eb] [Abm] reveal
In a [G] phrase how I feel
[Cm] Have you ever heard through [Abm] [G] hurdle doors
Mail [Ab] and coup [F] when they [Bb] know
That's the kind of magic music [G] we make with our lips
[Bb] When we [Eb] kiss
[C] And as a weary [Fm] old willow
[D] He really [Eb] knows how to cry
[E] That's how I cry in [Fm] my pillow
[Ab] If you'd tell me [Cm] farewell and [G] goodbye
[F] Lullaby of [G] Birdland whisper low
[Ab] It's [Fm] neat, sweet [Ab] and [Bb] we'll go
Flyin' high in Birdland, [E] high in the sky up [Eb] above
[Ab] All because [Dm] we're in love
[C] [F] Lullaby, [C]
[F] lullaby, lullaby
Have [Bb]
[Abm] [G]
[Cm] you ever heard through [Ab] hurdle [Abm] doors
[Eb] Mail and coup [Abm] when they know
[Gm] That's the [Cm] kind of magic [Abm] music we make with our [Bb] lips
When [Ab] we kiss
[E] And as a weary [Fm]
[Abm] [Eb]
[Bb] [Fm] [C]
[D] old willow
He really [Ab] [G] knows how to cry
[Cm] [D] That's how I cry in my pillow
[G]
[Ab] Kiss me sweet [Bb] and we'll [E] go
Flyin' [Eb] high in [Abm] Birdland, high [Dbm] in the sky [G] up above
All [C]
[Bb] [Abm] because [Bb]
we're [Eb] in love
[Gm] [D] [Eb]
