Blue Bayou

(C)I feel so bad I got a worried mind
(G7)I'm so lonesome all the time
Since I left my baby behind on (C)Blue Bayou
 
Saving nickels saving dimes
(G7)Working till the sun don't shine
Looking forward to happier times on (C)Blue Bayou
 
I'm going back someday come what may to (G7)Blue Bayou
Where you sleep all day and the catfish play on (C)Blue Bayou
Where those fishing boats with their (C7)sails afloat if (F)I could only (Fm)see
That (C)familiar sunrise through (G7)sleepy eyes how (C)happy I'd be
 
Gonna see my baby again
(G7)Gonna be with some of my friends
Maybe I'd be happy then on (C)Blue Bayou
 
I'm going back some day gonna stay on (G7)Blue Bayou
Where the folks are fine and the world is mine on (C)Blue Bayou
Oh that girl of mine (C7)by my side the (F)silver moon and the (Fm)evening tide
Oh (C)some sweet day gonna (G7)take away this (C)hurting inside
         
Well I'd (G7)never be blue my dreams come true
On Blue Ba(C)you
