Hummingbird Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
Got tired of living in [G]that
one horse [F]town
[G]I went to the station to flag
that Hummingbird [C]down
[G]I didn't even call to say good- bye[F]
[G]I couldn't stand to see that little girl cry

[Verse 2]
Now [Cm]I'm off to t[C]he city,
gonna make my name
[D]Those lights are calling
me to fortune and [C]fame

[Verse 3]
I had to [G]ride [C]that Hummingbir[G]d
[C]I had[F] to rid[G]e tha[C]t Humming
[G]bird
[C][F][Gm][C][G]

[Verse 4]
I'm gonna make it now just any [F]day
[G]I've got this guitar and[Gm]
I came [C]to play
Lying [G]here lonely, knowing what I've [F]lost
[G]My heart keeps asking: Was
it worth the cost?

[Verse 5]
[C]Now ain't it funny how it always seems
[D]Once you're standing there
the grass ain't so [C]green

[Verse 6]
Why did I [G]ride [C]that Hummingbir[G]d
[C]I had to rid[G]e tha[C]t Hummingbird[G][A][Bb]
[C]Oh,

[Verse 7]
today she called me on the telephone
She said: [D]Hey country boy,
you've been gone too long
And now I'm [C]standing at the station,
looking down the line
[A]Here comes that Hummingbird, she's [D]right [E]on [F]time[D][C][G][D][G][A][Bb][G][C]
