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

D B
im going back some day come what may to blue bayou
A D
where you sleep all day and the catfish play on blue bayou
D7 G
all those fishing boats with their sails afloat if i could only
Gm
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
