[Verse 1]
G                                    Em
oh little red bird come to my window sill
G                                      Em
been so lonesome shaking that morning chill
G                                      Em
Oh little red bird open your mouth and say
G                                  Em
been so lonesome just about flown away

[Chorus]
C                                           G
 so long now i've been out in the rain and snow
      Em

C                    G 
little bird told me so

[Verse 2]
G                                    Em
oh little blue bird pearly feather breast
G                                Em
five cold nickels all that i got left
G                                  Em
oh little blue bird what am i gonna do
G                                     Em
five cold nickels ain't gonna see me through

[Chorus]
C                                           G
 so long now i've been out in the rain and snow
      Em  
but winter's come and gone and a 
C                    G 
little bird told me so

[Verse 3]
G                                Em
oh little black bird on my wire line
G                                 Em
dark as trouble in this heart of mine
G                                   Em
oh little black bird sings a worried song
G                                    Em
dark as trouble til winters come and gone

[Chorus]
C                                           G
 so long now i've been out in the rain and snow
      Em  
but winter's come and gone and a 
C                    G 
little bird told me so
