[Bm]
[A]
[Bm] He's a little bird [F#] that [Bm] somebody sends down to the earth to live on the [F#] wind,
[Bm] going on
the wind, and [Em] he sleeps on the
[Bm] wind, this little bird [F#] that somebody sends.
[Bm] He's light and fragile [F#] and feathers [Bm] sky blue, so thin and graceful the sun [F#] shines through.
[Bm] This little bird [Em]
who lives on the [Bm] wind, this little bird [F#] that somebody [Bm] sends.
He flies [E] so high [A] up in the sky, [G] out of reach [F#] of human eye,
[Bm] and the only time that [Em] he touches the ground [Bm] is when [F#] that little bird,
[Bm] is when [F#] that little bird, [Bm] is when [F#] that little bird [Bm] dies.
