Well, it's for your loyal Blackbird,
G

We did not use her well,
And the hard life she has lived now,

on the hills of Malabar
So our blackbird's going

to leave us now,

Which grieves the neighbours all.

And I hope she'll have good fortune,
G
A
Until on her we do call.

at the foot of a shady hill

And our blackbird's coming home again
G

But not to the same place
G

And I hope your friends and neighbours
G
A
Will not bring to her such disgrace
D
For the lovely lock and the limit
G
And the thrush will join and call
D
G
A
G
D
For to welcome home our blackbird

To the hills of Malabar
