NOTE: I believe I read somewhere when John Smith plays this song he does it
   in Drop D MajorD tuning. This tab was done in standard tuning. If you want to
   please feel free to tune your guitar to Drop D. I personally do not do
   so. Please keep this in mind when playing and rating this tab. Thanks.

CAPO: 2nd FRET

INTRO:
A minorAm FF C majorC G+G  A minorAm FF C majorC C

VERSE:
    A minorAm    FF    C majorC   G+G
When I met her she was just engaged
   A minorAm  FF    C majorC
I was only twenty-three
   A minorAm     FF   C majorC    G+G
She left right when I said hello
   DmDm   FF C majorC  G+G
I pursued her in my dreams

   A minorAm   FF     C majorC G+G
And when I found the courage
    A minorAm     FF   C majorC
For to speak more than a word
     A minorAm     FF    C majorC    G+G
She was dressed in green and wild as night
   A minorAm   FF   C majorC
All like a Hummingbird

A minorAm FF C majorC G+G A minorAm FF C majorC


VERSE:
   A minorAm    FF     C majorC     G+G
She stole my heart some more each day
   A minorAm    FF    C majorC
She said You should be mine
  A minorAm   FF    C majorC    G+G
We married in her father`s house
  DmDm    FF C majorC  G+G
Beneath the autumn sky

 A minorAm   FF  C majorC      G+G
Blissfully I watched her darting
 A minorAm    FF   C majorC
Round and out of sight
    A minorAm   FF    C majorC    G+G
And I knew I couldn`t hold on long
    A minorAm    FF    C majorC
These hands are much too tight

BREAK:
     Dm7Dm7 Dm7Dm7 G+G    FF    FF
Yes she slips,   there she slides
     Dm7Dm7 Dm7 G+G      FF    FF
Here she comes   and there she flies

A minorAm FF C majorC G+G A minorAm FF C majorC


VERSE:
   A minorAm     FF   C majorC   G+G
She said she`d travel by my side
    A minorAm     FF   C majorC
Unless death should do us part
    A minorAm    FF    C majorC   G+G
It was in some crowded city street
    DmDm     FF C majorC   G+G
There stopped her beating heart

   A minorAm   FF    C majorC    G+G
So, gone before we made one year
   A minorAm     FF     C majorC
Like all good things she passed
   A minorAm  FF   C majorC    G+G
She disappeared into the breeze
   A minorAm    FF    C majorC
And flew out for the last

A minorAm FF C majorC G+G A minorAm FF C majorC C
A minorAm FF C majorC C Bb majorBb FF


VERSE:
A minorAm    FF    C majorC     G+G
In these times of constant change
   A minorAm   FF    C majorC
I`m holding on for you
      A minorAm     FF     C majorC     G+G
You`re the one whose affections I still crave
  DmDm   FF   C majorC   G+G
The one my world clings to

      A minorAm    FF   C majorC    G+G
And these words of mine escape my mouth
   A minorAm   FF    C majorC
And travel without bounds
  A minorAm      FF     C majorC  G+G
Up through the clouds and into space
   A minorAm   FF    C majorC
There run devotion`s sounds

        A minorAm  FF C majorC  G+G   A minorAm    FF  C majorC
You can hear them! Woooooh ooooh wooh ooh wooh ooh

      A minorAm    FF     C majorC  G+G A minorAm FF C majorC C
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah


BREAK:
     Dm7Dm7 Dm7Dm7 G+G     FF  FF
Yes she slips,  there she slides
     Dm7Dm7 Dm7  G+G    FF   FF
Here she coooomes there she flies


VERSE:
  A minorAm   FF    C majorC   G+G
If I could be with her again
  A minorAm       FF    C majorC
I don`t know what I would say
     A minorAm   FF    C majorC    G+G
But I`ll always know her by her shape
  DmDm    FF   C majorC  G+G
Between that night and day

     A minorAm   FF   C majorC    G+G
And she comes to me in glimpses now
  A minorAm   FF   C majorC
As fleeting as a word
 A minorAm   FF     C majorC  G+G
Flashes bright and disappears


OUTRO:
  DmDm  FF G+G
My darling
C majorC  FF   DmDm G+G     A minorAm FF C majorC G+G A minorAm FF C majorC C
My darling   Hummingbird.

A minorAm FF C majorC G+G A minorAm FF G+G C majorC
