		B	E
	Tra-la-	la, twiddle-dee	dee dee,

		B
	it gives me a	thrill,

		F#7	B	E
	To	wake up in the morning to the	mockingbirds'	trill,

		B	E	B
	Tra-la-	la, twiddle-dee	dee	dee,

		E	B
	there's	peace and good	will,

		F#7	B
	You're	welcome as the flowers on	Mockin' Bird Hill.

	B	E
When the	sun in the morning peeps	over the hill,

	F#7	B
And	kisses the roses 'round	my windowsill.

	E
Then my heart fills with gladness when	I hear the trill,

	F#7	B
Of the	birds in the tree tops on	Mockin' Bird Hill.

		B	E
	Tra-la-	la, twiddle-dee	dee dee,

		B
	it gives me a	thrill,

		F#7	B	E
	To	wake up in the morning to the	mockingbirds'	trill,

		B	E	B
	Tra-la-	la, twiddle-dee	dee	dee,

		E	B
	there's	peace and good	will,

		F#7	B
	You're	welcome as the flowers on	Mockin' Bird Hill.

(Solo)

	B	E
When it's	late in the evening I	climb up the hill,

	F#7	B
And sur	vey all my kingdom while	everything's still.

	B	E
Only	me and the sky and an	old whippoorwill,

	F#7	B
Singing	songs in the twilight on	Mockin' Bird Hill.

		B	E
	Tra-la-	la, twiddle-dee	dee dee,

		B
	it gives me a	thrill,

		F#7	B	E
	To	wake up in the morning to the	mockingbirds'	trill,

		B	E	B
	Tra-la-	la, twiddle-dee	dee	dee,

		E	B
	there's	peace and good	will,

		F#7	B
	You're	welcome as the flowers on	Mockin' Bird Hill.
