[Verse]
     Em        C#m7b5   F#7b9       B7b9
Oh, lullaby by birdland that's what I
Fm7    Cmaj7  Am7        D9
Always hear, when you sigh
Bm7         Em7      Am7            D7b9         C9
Never in my wordland could there be ways to reveal
     F#7b5        B7
In a phrase how I feel
 
Em            C#m7b5    F#7b9    B7b9
Have you ever heard two turtle doves
Em7      Cmaj7 Am7         D9
Bill and coo, when they love?
Bm7                Em7   Am7       D7b9          G   D7
That's the kind of magic music we make with our lips
          G
When we kiss
 
E9            E7b9         Am   Am7
And there's a weepy old willow
D9        D7b9           G
He really knows how to cry
E9             E7b9        Am    Am7
That's how I'd cry in my pillow
D9            D7b9           G         B7
If you should tell me farewell and goodbye
 
Em         C#m7b5   F#7b9     B7b9
Lullaby of birdland whisper low
Em7     Cmaj7  Am         D9
Kiss me sweet, and we'll go
Bm7            Em7       Am7         D7b9    G     C9
Flying high in birdland, high in the sky up above
       F#m7b5        B7
All because we're in love
 
 N.C.
Lullaby, Lullaby

I think the first Fm7 is supposed to be Em7

Hello, Ella version is in lower key, I think Cm. When I transpose, #79 chords do not change?
