There's a yellow flower, by your bed;

 Sadly drooping it's perfumed head.

 So you won't smell it; I know what you'll miss.
Chorus 1:
              C              G
And there's a hummingbird, a hummingbird,

Oh there's a hummingbird, singing.

             C                 Em
There is the hat you made, the clothes you wore;

 Lying down on the cold dirty floor.

 The colours are fading; they'll never shine a-gain.

Oh there's a hummingbird, singing.

 There's a shadow where you once lay.

 They'll find it to-morrow, and think you went a-lone.
