Verse :

       A
I was floatin’ on the sea,

when out of nowhere;
   A
a head popped up from the water,

couldn’t help but stare
          D
He was a daffy motherfreaker,

floatin’ on the water;
        A
and I caught the next wave and

didn’t think about it further.
         E
When I turned back around,

and paddled out back
          D
He was a splishin’

and splashin’ like
                D7
he was takin’ a bath!

Chorus:

             A
O hey there bird!  Swimmin’ with me
             A
O hey there bird! Out in the sea
D
Sharks and the jellies

got no problem with me
                A
Out here we’re free!

Whooooooaaah
E                 D     D7
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Ohh

Verse :

         A
So, it wasn’t very long until

I realized
A
this bird couldn’t swim;

I could see it in his eyes.
      D
So
I paddled on over,

slid my board under
A
 and he hopped on.
E
Hang on brother,

we’re headed in
D
Just a few more minutes
D7
you’ll be flying in the wind!!

Chorus:

             A
O hey there bird!

Swimmin’ with me
             A
O hey there bird!

Out in the sea
D
Sharks and the jellies

got no problem with me
                A
Out here we’re free!

Whooooooaaah
E                 D     D7
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Ohh



Verse :

A
Waves passing under;

things are goin’ smooth.
A
Where the waves break,

we’re comin’ up to and a
D
Big peak is comin’,

better hold on tight;
A
‘cause we’re catching a ride,

or an unexpected flight!
          E
But if we beat the odds,

and make it back in
D
we can hang on the beach until
     D7
 you fly again!

Chorus:

             A
O hey there bird!

 Swimmin’ with me
             A
O hey there bird!

Out in the sea
D
Sharks and the jellies

got no problem with me
                A
Out here we’re free!

Whooooooaaah
E                 D     D7
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Ohh



Verse :

A
Cruised past the breakers

now we’re walking on shore;
     A
I’m strolling on the beach with

this bird up on my board.
        D
People lookin’ at us like they’ve
A
never seen a surfing fowl!
     E
And dryin’ his feathers,

safely on shore
D
Quoth that thankful raven
D7
“I’ll surf nevermore!”

Chorus:

             A
O hey there bird!

Swimmin’ with me
             A
O hey there bird!

Out in the sea
D
Sharks and the jellies

got no problem with me
                A
Out here we’re free!

Whooooooaaah
E                 D     D7
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Ohh
