Hummingbird Song / Sweet Water

Acoustic Guitar Intro - Slow, Fingerpicked

Verse 1

I know time's runnin' out,

'bout time for you to head south.

Gotta catch that northern wind,

But I'll be waiting for you to come back again.

Verse 2

I know why you must go,

It's not that you ain't brave,

For a little bird, it's a mighty long way.

But I'll be waiting for you to come back again.

Verse 3 - Minimal, Quiet

You don't really need me,

But I'll be right here.

With a little dish of water,

Waiting for the spring.

Bridge

Yes, the winter is gonna be cold,

I'll find other things to do.

But try and remember me,

Next time you're passin' through.

Outro

Once the days start growing longer, and that southern wind starts blowin',

I'll start puttin' out that sweet water... and waiting for you to come back again.
