Bye Bye Blackbird Lyrics

[Intro]
Blackbird, blackbird, singing blues all day
Right outside my door
Blackbird, blackbird, I gotta be on my way
To where the sun shines once more

[Verse 1]
I pack up all my cares and woes
Here I go, singing low
Bye bye, blackbird

[Verse 2]
Where somebody waits for me
Sugar's sweet and so is she
Bye bye, blackbird

[Bridge]
No one here can love or understand me
Oh, what hard luck stories they all hand me

[Verse 3]
So, make my bed and light the light
I'll arrive late tonight
Blackbird, bye bye

[Piano Solo]
[Bridge]
No one here can love or understand me
Oh, what hard luck stories they all hand me

[Verse 3]
Make my bed and light the light
I'll be home late tonight
Blackbird
Oh Blackbird, ooh
Blackbird, bye bye

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
