Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]I h[D]ad [G]a b[D]ird[G],[D][G][C]
[G]he flew away
[D]And I guess he's [G]gone to stay
But [C]I see him w[G]inging on his way
My [D]flyaway [C]bird named
[G]Yesterday
[Bb][F]

[Verse 2]
[Bb]
He's over the [F]place of my [Bb]birth
He's [C]circling [G]a spot that [C]I know
He's [F]hanging around [C]the saw mill town
Where the gentle summer
[Bb]breezes [G]blow
[D][G][D]

[Verse 3]
[G]
[C]I had a bir[G]d, he flew away
[D]And I guess he's [G]gone to stay
But [C]I see him w[G]inging on his way
My [D]flyaway [C]bird named
[G]Yesterday

[Verse 4]
[Bb][F][Bb]
He's riding [F]on [Bb]a train
He's [C]down at the [G]old swimming [C]hole
[F]He'll fly till he finds that [C]old
gang of mine
Then he'll search for a
[G]tree,a big tall oak tree
Then he'll [F]look from his perch
At the [Bb]old count[G]ry church
[D][G]

[Verse 5]
[C]I had a bir[G]d, he flew away
[D]And I guess he's [G]gone to stay
But [C]I see him w[G]inging on his way
My [D]flyaway [C]bird named [G]Yesterday

[Outro 1]
[D][G][D][G][D][G][D][G][D][G][D][G]
