That's when [Dm] Wendell G.
takes a [G] tug upon the stream
That held the [D] line of trees [C] behind the house [Dm] he lived in
[G] He was reared to give respect somewhere [D] down the line
[F] Whistle [C] as the warm birds
[F] Whistle as [C] the warm [G] birds [C] leave
Had a dream [Dm] one night
But [G] the tree lost its middle
So he built a tree
[D] [C] Try to hold [Dm] it in
[G] But the wire, [Dm] the wire changed
[G]
[F] There wasn't [C] even time [Em] to [F] sing
Goodbye to Wendell [C] G.
[G] [F] So whistle as [C] the warm [Em] birds
[F] Whistle as [C] the warm [G] birds [C] leave
[Dm]
[G] [Dm] [G]
[C] [Dm]
[G] [Dm] [G]
There [F] wasn't [C] even time [Em] to sing
[F] Goodbye to Wendell [C] G.
[G] [F] So whistle as [C] the warm [Em] birds
[F] Whistle as [C] the warm [G] birds leave
[F] If the wind would [C] color
[Em] [F] If the air could [C] speak
[G] [F] Whistle as [C] the warm birds
[Em] [F] Whistle as [C] the warm [G] birds
