Three Blue Pigeons

Found a new song to use for my "Blue" theme for storytime next week: Three Blue Pigeons. I'm thinking about making 3 Mo Willems-style pigeons for the flannel board, but we'll see what I get time for.

There's a video of it here, but I couldn't find any sheet music/chords for it so I can play along with my autoharp (the kids just love when I pull out the autoharp). So for myself, and for anyone else, here are the lyrics and chords for Three Blue Pigeons.
