Checking but can't find lyrics/chords for "Little Bird," recorded by Jerry Jeff Walker. "Litte bird come sit upon my windowsill/sat there through a pourin' rain . . . ." Surely there's a 'Cat who knows.

Surely there is. Jerry Jeff has different versions of Little Bird. This on is from "Viva Terlingua"

Little Bird
Words and music by Jerry Jeff Walker

Little bird came and sat upon my window sill,
Sat there thru the pourin' rain.
As I watched that little bird upon my window sill,
I saw my thoughts of you go by again.

CHORUS
And a picture of my face reflected on the pane
Is it tears or is it rain?

I remember how we talked before we said goodbye,
Too young to notice the world outside our door,
And how we laughed and said our love was free,
Like birds that fly the winds.
Well, the rainy day made me think of you once more.

CHORUS 2
Picture of my face, on the window pane
Is it tears I see, or is it rain?

I have no regrets about the past, I see how young we were,
When our world was love and life was but a thought.
Many things go many ways and many times but once
Our lives have passed and that love is but a thought.

CHORUS

So as the thoughts go tumblin' back, I wonder how you loved,
Wonder if you've seen that little bird.
I wonder if he's sat upon your window sill,
I wonder if you'll ever hear these words.
