The Byrds fue un banda de rock estadounidense de mediados de la década de 1960 que fue pionera del Folk Rock, el rock psicodélico y el country rock, siendo considerados como la respuesta estadounidense a la invasión británica encabezada por los Beatles.
EL gérmen de los Byrds fue el trío folk acústico californiano The Jet Set de 1964, integrado por Roger McGuinn (nacido como Jim en Chicago, 1941), Gene Clark (Tipton, Misouri 1941) y David Crosby (Los Ángeles 1941).

The Byrds America's Great National Pastime written by Skip Battin Kim Fowler
CG One of America's great national pastimes is drinking a coke FC Taking a smoke telling a joke CG One of America's great national pastimes is playing ball FC Taking it all and thinking so small FC But the great taste of coke has refreshed players GC The hot and tired the weary and the sore FC But the great taste of coke has refreshed players GFC The hot and tired the weary and the sore CG One of America's great national pastimes is chocolate fudge FC Carrying a grudge bribing a judge CG One of America's great national pastimes is poisoning rain FC Acting insane inflicting pain FC But the great taste of coke has refreshed players GC The hot and tired the weary and the sore FC But the great taste of coke has refreshed players GFC The hot and tired the weary and the sore CG One of America's great national pastimes is the worship of speed FC Planting the seeds taking more than she needs CG One of America's great national pastime is cutting the grass FC Grabbing some ass living too fast FC But the great taste of coke has refreshed players GC The hot and tired the weary and the sore FC But the great taste of coke has refreshed players GFC The hot and tired the weary and the sore

DA7D Well I had an old dog and his name was Blue A7D Well I had an old dog and his name was Blue
Well I had an old dog and his name was Blue A7DDA7D Betcha five dollars he's a good dog too DA7D Oh Blue chased a possum up a holler limb A7D Blue chased a possum up a holler limb
Blue chased a possum up a holler limb A7D The possum growled Blue whined at him DBmGADBmGAD Bye bye blue you good dog you bye bye blue you good dog you D When old Blue died he died so hard A7D He shook the ground in my back yard
We lowered him down with a golden chain A7D And every link we called his name DBmGADBmGAD Bye bye blue you good dog you bye bye blue you good dog you D My old Blue he was a good old hound AD You'd hear him hollar miles around
When I get to heaven first thing I'll do AD Is grab my horn and call for Blue DBmGADBmGAD Bye bye blue you good dog you bye bye blue you good dog you
