Verse 1:

Bm7
 Today,
My bird flew away,
Am7
 Gone to find her,
Big Blue Jay.
Bm7
 Starlight before,
She took flight,
  Am7
I sang a Lullaby,
            C9
Of Birdland everynight.

Bm7
 I sang a lullaby,
C9
 Everynight,
Bm7
 Sang for my,
    C9
Ava everynight.

Chorus 1:

Em   C#m7b5
 Ava was the morning,
F#7        B7
 Now she's gone,
Em        Cmaj7
 She's re-born,
     Am7   D7
Like Sarah Vaughan.

Em      C#m7b5
 In the sanctuary,
F#7      B7
 She has found,
Em         Cmaj7
 Birds sur-round,
Am7        D7
 Her sweet sound.

Bridge 1:

    Bm7
And Ava flies,
   C9
In paradise,
    Bm7
And Ava flies,
   C9
In paradise.

Verse 2:

Bm7
 With dread,
I woke in my bed,
Am7
 To shooting pains,
Up in my head.
Bm7
 Lovebird,
My beautiful bird,
Am7
 Spoke until one day,
    C9
She couldn't be heard.

    Bm7
She spoke until one day,
    C9
She couldn't be heard,
Bm7       C9
 She just stopped singing.

Chorus 2:

Em   C#m7b5
 Ava was the morning,
F#7        B7
 Now she's gone,
Em        Cmaj7
 She's re-born,
     Am7   D7
Like Sarah Vaughan.

Em      C#m7b5
 In the sanctuary,
F#7      B7
 She has found,
Em         Cmaj7
 Birds sur-round,
Am7        D7
 Her sweet sound.
