Where be that Blackbird to?  I know where he be.
                               Eb         Bb
He be up yon Wurzel tree.  And I be after he.
    Bb          Eb          Bb                  Eb
Now I sees he.  He sees I.  Buggered if I don't get him.

Verse 1
Bb                                          Eb
All my life I'm on the farm, working for me keep.
F                                            Bb
Tending pigs and chickens, and them cows and sheep.
                                                   Eb
But everywhere I'm working, there's one who always mocks me.
     F                                              Bb
He's hiding somewhere in the trees, blackbird I'll 'ave he

Verse 2
Bb                                             Eb
Underneath the open sky, in spring we loves to dine.
   F                                                 Bb
We likes to hear the flapping of the missus' washing line.
                                               Eb
We listens to a tuneful song, a blackbird or a tit
    F                                             Bb
But on me vest and underpants, he scored a direct hit


Verse 3
Bb                                           Eb
If I go out poaching, a creeping through the fields.
F                                        Bb
With my old retriever, a following at me heels.
                                          Eb
If I aim me shotgun, at a pheasant in the hay.
     F                                                   Bb
That bloody blackbird starts his row, and frightens him away.


Verse 4
Bb                                               Eb
No longer can I sleep at night, get peace of any kind
     F                                              Bb
That bird'll be the death of me, he's preying on me mind
                                               Eb
If I chase him long enough, I'll get'en by and by.
    F                                              Bb
And celebrate me victory with a gert big blackbird pie
