[Estrofa]
Bm7                        Am7 
 Today, my bird flew away; gone to find her big Blue Jay. 
Bm7 
 Starlight before she took flight, 
  Am7                        C9 
I sang a Lullaby Of Birdland every night. 
  
Bm7               C9           Bm7             C9 
 I sang a lullaby every night, sang for my Ava every night.

 Ava was the morning, now she's gone; she's re-born like Sarah Vaughan. 
Em      C#m7b5     F#7     B7     Em        Cmaj7  Am7       D7 
 In the sanctuary, she has found, birds sur-round, her sweet sound.

And Ava flies, in paradise, and Ava flies, in paradise.
[Estrofa]
Bm7                            Am7 
 With dread, I woke in my bed, to shooting pains up in my head. 
Bm7                           Am7                      C9 
 Lovebird, my beautiful bird, spoke until one day, she couldn't be heard.
[Pre-Estribillo]
    Bm7                      C9 
She spoke until one day, she couldn't be heard. 
Bm7       C9 
 She just stopped singing.
