_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Yellowbird, _ [A]
up high in banana [D] tree, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Yellowbird, _ [A] you sit all alone [D] like _ me.
[G] _ Did your lady [D] friend leave a nest [A] again?
That is very [D] sad, makes me [G] feel so bad.
You can fly [D]
away, in the sky [A] away, you're more [D] lucky than me. _ _ _ _
_ I also had [G] a pretty girl, [A] she's not with [D] me today.
_ _ They're all the same, [Em]
the pretty _ [A] girls, they tend the nest, then they [D] fly away. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Bm] _
_ [A] _ [D] _ _ Yellowbird, [A] up high in banana [D] tree, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Bm] Yellowbird, _ [A] you sit all [D] alone like me.
_ [G] _ Better fly [D] away, in the sky [A] away, take her coming [D] soon, from night [G] to noon.
Black and yellow [D] hue, like banana [A] too, they might pick you [D] someday. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ Wish that I were [G] a yellowbird, _ [A] I'd fly away [D] with you.
_ _ But I am not [Em] a yellowbird, _ [A] _ so here I sit, _ [E] nothing else [D] to _ do.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ Yellowbird, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ yellowbird, _ _ _ _ _ _ yellowbird, _ _ _ _ _ yellowbird. _ _

[Bb] _ _ _ _ [F] _ While _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
_ _ in that gay, tropic isle, _ _ I first saw that [C] maiden smile.
Though I had failed in the past, _ I said this is true love [F] at last.
_ [Dm] But then she whispered to me, [Db] that [G] our love never [C] could _ _ _ be.
_ _ [Am] _
_ _ _ [F] Destiny, _ _ [E]
oh when will I see [Am] the _ [C] day?
_ [Fm] _ _ [C] _ [F] _ Hopelessly, [C] I've wandered so long [F] this way. _
[Bb] This could never [F] be, she said [Gm] pleadingly, don't ever love [F] me, I'm just fancy [Bb] free.

My love was motion and grace, _ the moonlight soft [C] on her face. _
