GD
[Verse 1]
GDG
If the song of the songbird,
DG
Could replace my wrong word
DAD
then my dear, that's the song I would borrow
[Chorus]
GG#dim
And tonight you would hear
DBm
The saddest song of the year
E7A7D
And you'd be mine once again, come tomorrow
[Verse 2]
GDG
If the song of the swallow,
DG
Could reveal my sorrow
DAD
Then my dear, he would sing just for you.
[Chorus]
GG#dim
And tonight you would hear
DBm
The saddest song of the year
E7A7D
And you'd be mine once again, come tomorrow
[Bridge]
DD/C#D/BA
Just tonight, while in flight,
A7DD
On your window sill they light
GEmA
To tell you, all of my tears.
[Chorus]
GG#dim
And tonight you would hear
DBm
The saddest song of the year
E7A7D
And you'd be mine once again, come tomorrow
[Verse 3]
GDG
If the song of the swallow,
DG
Could reveal my sorrow
DAD
Then my dear, he would sing just for you.
[Chorus]
GG#dim7
Oh, yes, tonight, tonight you would hear
DBm
The saddest song of the year
E7AD
And you'd be mine once again, come tomorrow
[Chorus]
GG#dim
Oh, yes, tonight, tonight you would hear
DBm
The saddest song of the year
E7A7D
And you'd be mine, you'd be mine once again, come tomorrow.
[Outro- fade]
GG#dim
Sing, sing, sing, sing, sing, Mr. Songbird
DBm
Come on and sing just once little swallow
E7A7D
and make her mine once again, come tomorrow
