[Bm] When I [D] met her she was just [G]
[Bm] engaged, I was [D] only 23
She [Bm] [D] left right when I said [Em] hello, I pursued [D] her in my dreams
And when [G] I [D] found the [G] courage, [D] for to speak more than a word
She was dressed in green and wild [G] as night, [Bm] all [D] like a hummingbird
[D] [G]
[Bm] [D] [G] [D]
She stole my heart some more each day, and she said you should be mine
We married in her father's house, [Em] beneath [F#m] [G] the [D] autumn sky
[G] Blissfully I [D] watched her [G]
[D] darting round and out of sight
And I knew I couldn't hold on [G] long, these hands are [D] much too tight
Here [Em] she slips, [F#m] [Em]
[A] and there [G] she [C#] slides, [G] [D]
here [Em] she comes, [A] [D] [A]
and there [G] she [C#] flies
[G]
[D] [G] [D] [G]
[D]
She said she'd travel by my [G]
side, [Bm] unless death should [D] do us part
It was in some crowded city street, that sopped her beating [A] heart
[D] So gone [G] before [D] we made one year, like all good things she'd passed
[G] She disappeared [D] into [G] the breeze, [Bm] we flew up all [D] the line
Here [Em] she slips, [A] [Bm] [G] and there she [D] slides, [G]
here she [A] [D] comes, [G]
and there she flies
[D]
If I could be with her again, I don't know what I would say
But I'll always know her by her shape, [Bm] between [Bm] the night [A] and day
[D] And she comes to me in glimpses now, as fleeting as a word
Flashes bright and disappears, [G] my darling, [A] [D] [E]
my [G] [A] darling [G]
[D] hummingbird
