Blue Bayou

  F
I feel so bad I've got a worried 
mind,
C7
I'm so lonesome all the time;
                               F
since I left my baby behind on blue 
bayou

F                           
Saving nickels, saving dimes, 
  C7
working till the sun don't shine
Looking forward to happier times, on
 F
 blue bayou

[Chorus]

          F                        
I'm going back some day, come what 
        C7
may, to blue bayou
Where you sleep all day, and the 
                 F
catfish play, on blue bayou
          F7                       
All those fishing boats, with their
                  Bb           Bbm
 sails afloat, if I could only see
     F                        
That familiar sunrise, through 
 C7               F
sleepy eyes, how happy I'd be

[Verse]

F
Go to see my baby again,
C7
and to be with some of my friends
                            F
Maybe I'd be happy then, on blue 
bayou

[Chorus]

          F                        
I'm going back some day, gonna 
     C7
stay, on blue bayou
Where the folks are fine, and the 
                  F
world is mine, on blue bayou
         F7                        
Oh, that girl of mine, by my side, 
    Bb                          Bbm
the silver moon and the evening tide
    F                     C7      
Oh, some sweet day, gonna take 
        F
away, this hurting inside

[Otro]

     C7                            
I'll never be blue, my dreams come 
         Gm   C7  F
true, on blue bayou
