Bm7Bm7
Today, my bird flew away,
Am7Am7
Gone to find her big Blue Jay.
Bm7Bm7
Starlight before she took flight,
Am7Am7 C9C9
I sang a Lullaby Of Birdland everynight.
Bm7Bm7 C9C9
I sang a lullaby everynight,
Bm7Bm7 C9C9
Sang for my Ava everynight.
E minorEm C#m7b5C#m7b5 F#7F#7 B7B7
Ava was the morning, now she's gone,
E minorEm Cmaj7Cmaj7 Am7Am7 D7D7
She's re-born like Sarah Vaughan.
E minorEm C#m7b5C#m7b5 F#7F#7 B7B7
In the sanctuary, she has found,
E minorEm Cmaj7Cmaj7 Am7Am7 D7D7
Birds sur-round, her sweet sound.
Bm7Bm7 C9C9
And Ava flies, in paradise,
Bm7Bm7 C9C9
And Ava flies, in paradise.
Bm7Bm7
With dread, I woke in my bed,
Am7Am7
To shooting pains up in my head.
Bm7Bm7
Lovebird, my beautiful bird,
Am7Am7
Spoke until one day,
C9C9
She couldn't be heard.
Bm7Bm7
She spoke until one day,
C9C9
She couldn't be heard,
Bm7Bm7 C9C9
She just stopped singing.
