[Verse]
G
I do not have no, wings like an angel
           C                  G
But like a bird, I’m bound to fly
G
Like a pretty little bird, I’ll be returning
                           Em
To my sweet, little by and by

[Chorus]
G
You my sweet, little by and by
                     D                      G
But you know I never rest, when I’m by your side
G
You my sweet, little by and by
                       D                      G
But you know I never rest, when I’m by your side
C    D            G
Hey! Hey! By your side
C    D            G
Hey! Hey! By your side
C    D            C
Hey! Hey! By your side

[Verse]
G
I do not have no, four wheels around me
C                           G
But like a car, I’s made to drive
G
Like a ricky-ol’ car, I’m steady rolling
                           Em
To my sweet, little by and by

[Chorus]
G
You my sweet, little by and by
                     D                      G
But you know I never rest, when I’m by your side
G
You my sweet, little by and by
                       D                      G
But you know I never rest, when I’m by your side
C    D            G
Hey! Hey! By your side
C    D            G
Hey! Hey! By your side
C    D            C
Hey! Hey! By your side

[Verse]
G
I do not have no, cold water falling
           C                 G
But like a river, I’m moving on
G
Like the Mississippi River, overflowing
                            Em
You my sweet, little by and by

[Chorus]
G
You my sweet, little by and by
                     D                      G
But you know I never rest, when I’m by your side
G
You my sweet, little by and by
                       D                      G
But you know I never rest, when I’m by your side

Hey! Hey! By your side
C    D            G
Hey! Hey! By your side
C    D            G
Hey! Hey! By your side
