Blue Bayou

Intro: A 


 
  A 
I feel so bad I've got a worried mind 
E 
I'm so lonesome all the time 
                               A 
Since I left my baby behind on blue bayou 
A                          E 
Saving nickels saving dimes working till the sun don't shine 
                                    A 
Looking forward to happier times on blue bayou 
 

 
          A                                   E 
I'm going back some day come what may on blue bayou 
                                                       A 
Where the folks are fine and the world is mine on blue bayou 
          A7                                       D            Dm 
All those fishing boats with their sails afloat if I could only see 
       A                      E               A 
That familiar sunrise through sleepy eyes how happy I'd be 
 

 
A                      E 
Gonna see my baby again gonna be with some of my friends 
                                A 
Maybe I'll feel better again on blue bayou 
                           E 
Saving nickels saving dimes working till the sun don't shine 
                                    A 
Looking forward to happier times on blue bayou 
 

 
          A                                   E 
I'm going back some day come what may on blue bayou 
                                                       A 
Where the folks are fine and the world is mine on blue bayou 
          A7                                       D            Dm 
All those fishing boats with their sails afloat if I could only see 
       A                      E               A 
That familiar sunrise through sleepy eyes how happy I'd be

        A7                         D                   Dm 
Oh that boy of mine by my side the silver moon and the evening time 
        A               E              A 
Oh some sweet day gonna take away this hurtin inside 
         E                                           A 
Well I'd never be blue my dreams come true on blue bayou
