{Intro}
I'm your only friend
I'm not your only friend
But I'm a little glowing friend
But really I'm not actually your friend
But I am

/ C Dm / Eb F / Bb Cm / Dm DG / C - - - /

{Refrain}
Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch
Who watches over you
Make a little birdhouse in your soul
Not to put too fine a point on it
Say I'm the only bee in your bonnet
Make a little birdhouse in your soul

/ C F / C AG / CG AmF / Eb Ab / Eb Ab / EbCm AbG (C F C F) / 

I have a secret to tell
From my electrical well
It's a simple message and I'm leaving out the whistles and bells
So the room must listen to me
Filibuster vigilantly
My name is blue canary one note spelled l-i-t-e
My story's infinite, like the Longines Symphonette
It doesn't rest

/ C F C F / CG C7 F G / 1st / 2nd / Am Am+ Am6 Am+ / G /

{Refrain}

{Intro}

There's a picture opposite me
Of my primitive ancestry
Which stood on rocky shores and kept the beaches shipwreck free
Though I respect that a lot
I'd be fired if that were my job
After killing Jason off and countless screaming Argonauts
Bluebird of friendliness
Like guardian angels its always near

{Refrain}

{As Refrain}
And while you're at it
Keep the nightlight on inside the
Birdhouse in your soul
Not to put too fine a point on it
Say I'm the only bee in your bonnet
Make a little birdhouse in your soul

{Final Refrain}
Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch
   And while you're at it
Who watches over you
   Keep the nightlight on inside the
Make a little birdhouse in your soul
   Birdhouse in your soul
Not to put too fine a point on it
Say I'm the only bee in your bonnet
Make a little birdhouse in your soul
