Peter, Paul and Mary - Leatherwing bat

^Gm"I" said the little ^Bbleatherwing bat ^F"I'll tell to you the ^Gmreason that The ^Bbreason that I ^Dmfly by night Is ^Ambecause I've lost my ^Gmheart's delight."

^EbHowdy dowdy ^Bbdiddle-dum day ^CHowdy dowdy ^Gmdiddle-dum day ^EbHowdy dowdy ^Bbdiddle-dum ^Cday ^EbHey le ^Bblee-lee ^Clie-lee ^Gmlow

^Gm"I" said the blackbird ^Bbsittin' on a chair "^FOnce I courted a ^Gmlady, fair ^FShe proved fickle and ^Dmturned her back ^AmAnd ever since then I've ^Gmdressed in black."

"^GmI" said the woodpecker ^Bbsittin' on a fence "^FOnce I courted a ^Gmhandsome wench ^BbShe got scared and ^Dmfrom me fled ^AmAnd ever since then my ^Gmhead's been red."

^Gm"I" said the little ^Bbturtle dove "^FI'll tell you how to ^Gmwin her love ^BbCourt her night and ^Gmcourt her day ^AmNever give her time to ^Gmsay o-neigh!"

"^GmI" said the bluejay and ^Bbaway he flew "^FIf I were a young man ^GmI'd have two ^BbIf one were faithless and ^Dmchanced to go ^AmI'd add the other string ^Gmto my bow"

^GmHey le lee-lee lie-lee low
