Kris Delmhorst - Hummingbird Chords

CAPO: 3rd Fret



INTRO: Am ~ C  Am ~ C  Am

     ~      C     Am
Here in the dark
        ~           C     
I won't even make a spark
Dm              Dm/C            G
You're the only one who's never seen
    Dm              Dm/C            G
The way I can light up in shades of gold and green
    F             C   G
I'm just a little firefly
          F                 C       G
I want to shine for you but I'm too shy
   F              C       ~       Am
So when you come around I hide my light
             F         C         G       C          ~          Am
But when you go away I shine for you all night, all night, all night
        F         G       C          ~          Am
Well, I shine for you all night, all night, all night
        F         G    Am
Well, I shine for you


          ~      C    Am
Out there in the sun 
                ~  C     
I'd open up for anyone
Dm              Dm/C           G
You're the only one who closes me
          Dm             Dm/C                   G
Because I want to be the brightest thing you've ever seen
    F             C    G
I'm just a little dandelion
          F               C         G
I want to blossom but I'm scared of trying
     F                     C      ~      Am
So I hide my head when you come into the room
             F         C          G    Am    ~  C
But when you go away I come right into bloom 


BRIDGE:
                 F
And I can't look down
           Dm      G
'Cause I'm way too high
                 Dm
And I can't look up
          Bb    F  Am ~ C  Am ~ C  
Into your eyes 


       Am                  ~        C     
Well I never was afraid to sing out loud
   Am                ~   C     
In front of anybody, any crowd
Dm       Dm/C            G
You, you make me lose my nerve
Dm                  Dm/C              G
Feel like something more than I could ever deserve
    F             C      G
I'm just a little hummingbird
          F                C        G
I want to sing but I can't find the words
   F              C       ~       Am
So when you come around I just go still
    F              G   F                  G       
But after you move on, when I know you're gone
       F                C     G      C       ~       Am
Then I sing for you the way I always will, I will, I will
         F     G      C       ~       Am
Ooh, the way I always will, I will, I will
         F     G      C       ~       Am
Ooh, the way I always will, I will, I will
    F     G      C  ~  Am
The way I always
    F     G      C  ~  Am
The way I always
        F      G      C  ~  Am  F  G  C
Oh, you know I always
