Yellow Bird

Tom: D

D                  A              D
   Yellow bird, up high in banana tree
                 A                  D
Yellow bird, you sit all alone like me

[Chorus]
Em                   D
Did your lady friend leave the nest again?
A                 D
That is very sad, makes me feel so bad
Em                D
You can fly away, in the sky away
A                      D
You're more lucky than me

[Verse 1]
D            Em           A                   D
I also had a pretty girl, she's not with me today
                           Em
They're all the same those pretty girls
A                               D
Take tenderness, then they fly away
           A D             A D
Yellow bird,   yellow bird

[Chorus]
Em                   D
Did your lady friend leave the nest again?
A                 D
That is very sad, makes me feel so bad
Em                D
You can fly away, in the sky away
A                      D
You're more lucky than me

[Verse 2]
D                  Em           A                 D
Wish that I were a yellow bird, I'd fly away with you
               Em           A
But I am not a yellow bird, so here I sit
              D
Nothing I can do
                C#  D
Yellow bird, yellow bird
