Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
The [G]Canary [E]Song[A]
Hawk[D]s and crows do lots of things,
[G]But the canary [E]only sing[Em]s.
[A]She is a cour[G]tesan on [A]wings,
So [D]I've heard.
[Am]Eagles and storks are twice as strong,
All the canary knows his song.
But [B]the canary gets along,
[E]gilded [A]bird.[Am][A]
[D]Sing for your supper,
and you'll [A]get [D]breakfast,
Songbirds always eat,
[G]If their song [Em]is sweet
[A]to [Em]hear.[A]
[D]Sing for your luncheon,
and you'll get dinner,
Dine with wine of choice,
[G]if romance [Em]is in[A] your vo[D]ice.
I [Em]heard [A]from a wise canary,
[D]trilling [A]makes a [D]fellow will[Bm]ing.
[G]So [Em]little swallow,
[A]swallow [F#m]now.[F]
Now [A]is the time to [D]sing for your supper,
and you'll get [A]breakfast.
[D]Songbirds are not dumb.
[G]They don't buy a [Em]crumb [A]of bread,
[D]it'[Ebdim]s said.[Em]
[A]So [D]sing and [Em]you'll [A]be fed[D].[Abdim][Am]
[D][G][C][Am][D][Am]
[G][D][G][Am][C][D][G][A]
[F#]I he[Em]ard fr[A]om a wis[Em]e ca[A]nary,
[D]drilling makes a fellow willing,
[Em]so little swallow,[A] swallow now.[F]
Now [G]is the time [D]to sing for your supper,
and you'll get [A]breakfast,
[D]songbirds are not dumb.
[G]They don't buy a [Em]crumb [A]of [D]bread,
[Ebdim]it is said,[Em]
so [D]sing and [G]you'll [A]be fed[Gm].[Bb]
