[Verses]
Em C#m7b5 F#7b9 B7
Lullaby of birdland, that's what I
Em9 Cmaj7 Am7 D7
Always hear when you sigh
Bm7 Em7
Never in my woodland
Am7 D#dim G Cmaj7
Could there be words to reveal
Am6 B7
In a phrase how I feel
Em C#m7b5 F#7b9 B7
Have you ever heard two turtle doves
Em9 Cmaj7 Am7 D7
Bill and coo when they love
Bm7 Em7
That's the kind of magic
Am7 D#dim G D7
Music we make with our lips
G
When we kiss
Em E7 Am Am7
And there's a weepy ol' willow
D7 D#dim G
He really knows how to cry
Em E7 Am Am7
That's how I cry in my pillow
D7 D#dim
If you should tell me
G B7
Farewell and goodbye
Em C#m7b5 F#7b9 B7
Lullaby of Birdland whisper low
Em9 Cmaj7 Am7 D7
Kiss me sweet, then we'll go
Bm7 Em7
Flying high in Birdland,
Am7 D#dim G Cmaj7
high in the sky up above
Am6 B7
All because we're in love

Nice chords. The chords aren't straight forward and several versions don't sound quite right. Glad to have found this I normally go for Guitar Pro (You can download TuxGuitar free and play up to GP5 files with it. I don't believe it works with GPX (Guitar Pro 6) files.)

Nice job! I had to transpose to Cm for Ella's key and alter a couple of chords, but... nice job ~ thank you! :D

Lyric should be “Never in my wordland”. Very nice chords. Thanks!
