Bluebird by Leon Russell from Will O' The Wisp

F F/E Dm Am Am7
I'm lost in the night The icy wind is howling out your name
Bb7 C C7
and desolation lingers like a fog And the fires growing dimmer in the wind
F F/E Dm Am Am7
I'm out in the rain The moon has gone behind the cloud again
Bb7 C7 F
And I can't stand to live another day cause my bluebird went away
Am7 Dm Bb7
And I'm lost in this room with my sorrow, No escape, no way to get away
Am7 Dm Bb7 Am7
And my only connection with tomorrow is hoping that you might decide
Bb7 Am7
not to stay away

F F/E Dm Am Am7
I'm out on a limb If I could only find sweet love again
Bb7
Living my live this way is too much to bear
C7 F
Can't find my blue bird anywhere, anywhere
Dm A7 Bb7 (repeat)
Oooh--ooh-oooh, etc.
F F/E Dm Am Am7
I'm lost in the night The icy wind is howling out your name
Bb7 C C7
and desolation lingers like a fog And the fires growing dimmer in the wind
F F/E Dm Am Am7
I'm out in the rain The moon has gone behind the cloud again
Bb7
And I can't stand to live another day
C7 F
Bluebird why did you go away
Bb7 Dm
Tell me bluebird why did you go away
Bb7 Dm
Oh little bluebird why did you go away won't you tell me
Play F/E as a bar chord F with the 6th string uncovered and hammer on the open bass note E string.
The F chord before the F/E should be played as a full bar chord (with an F bass note).
