Yellow bird, up high in banana tree; yellow bird, you sit all alone like me.

FF           C majorC          G+G        C majorC
Did your lady friend, leave de nest again, oh how very sad, make me feel so bad;
FF         C majorC        G+G           C majorC
You can fly away, in the sky away,  you more lucky dan me.

        G+G       C majorC           G+G         C majorC
Yellow bird, up high in banana tree; yellow bird, you sit all alone like me.

       G+G               C majorC
I also have a pretty gal, she not with me, today;
          FF      G+G               C majorC
Dey all de same, de pretty gal, de leave de nest; den they fly away.

        G+G       C majorC           G+G         C majorC  C7C7
Yellow bird, up high in banana tree; yellow bird, you sit all alone like me.

FF           C majorC         G+G            C majorC
Black and yellow, you, like banana, too;   you better fly away, in the sky away;
FF            C majorC            G+G              C majorC
The Picker coming soon, pick from night to noon;   they might pick you someday,

           FF      G+G           C majorC
I Wish that I were a yellow bird, I could fly away with you;
C majorC       FF      (No Chords)   G+G        C majorC
But I am not a yellow bird, so, here I sit, nothing else to do.
