* 8-bar intro
* Verse Pack up all my care and woe.
Here I go swinging low.
Bye bye, blackbird.
Where somebody waits for me,
Sugar sweet, so is she.
Bye bye, blackbird.
No-one here can love or understand me.
Oh, what hard-luck stories they all hand me.
Make my bed and light the light.
I'll arrive late tonight.
Blackbird, bye bye.
* 8-bar break
* Repeat verse, except - Background vocals sing (uh-huh-huh) on the lines "No-one here"
and "Oh, what..."
Leave out "bye bye" in last line.
* 32-bar break
* Outro Make my bed and light the light.
I'll be home late tonight.
Leave your ??? in the sky.
Toot-o-loo, (farewell) bye bye.
Blackbird.
Go take a fly, little blackbird, bye.
* Pause for applause
* 2nd outro Make my bed and light the light.
I'll be home late tonight.
Blackbird,
Bye bye.
