But you've already had one Ab If you were a bluebird, Eb you'd be crying Db Ab You'd be flying home Ab If you were a raindrop, You'd shine like a rainbow Db And if you were a train stop, The conductor would sing low Ab If you were a raindrop, Eb You'd be falling Db Ab You'd be calling home SOLO Ab If you were a hotel honey You'd be a grand one Db But, if you hit a slow spell, Do you think you could stand one Ab If you were a hotel, Eb Well I'd lean on your doorbell Db Ab I'd call you my home Ab If I was a highway, I'd stretch alongside you Db I'd help you pass byways that had dissatisfied you Ab If I was a highway, Eb well I'd be stretchin Db Ab I'd be fetchin you home SOLO Copyright Rainlight Muisc(ASCAP) Reprise Records 1989 From Emmylou Harris "Bluebird"
