D6
I feel so bad Ive got a worried mind
B
Im so lonesome all the time
A D6
Since I left my baby behind on blue bayou
D6 B
Saving nickels, saving dimes, working till the sun don't shine
A D6
Looking forward to happier times on blue bayou

Where you sleep all day and the catfish play on blue bayou

All those fishing boats with their sails afloat if I could only

see
D6 B A D6
That familiar sunrise through sleepy eyes, how happy I'd be
D6
Go to see my baby again
B
And to be with some of my friends
A D6
Maybe I'd be happy then on blue bayou
D6 B
Saving nickels, saving dimes, working till the sun don't shine
A D6
Looking forward to happier times on blue bayou
D B
Im going back some day, gonna stay on blue bayou
A D
Where the folks are fine and the world is mine on blue bayou
D7 G Gm
Oh, that girl of mine by my side the silver moon and the evening tide
D A D
Oh, some sweet day gonna take away this hurtin inside
B A G A D6
Ill never be blue, my dreams come true on blue bayou
