Chords
	 
[Verse]
D
I feel so bad I've got a worried mind,
A7
I'm so lonesome all the time;
D
since I left my baby behind on blue bayou
D A7
Saving nickels, saving dimes, working till the sun don't shine
D
Looking forward to happier times, on blue bayou
[Chorus]
D A7
I'm going back some day, come what may, to blue bayou
D
Where you sleep all day, and the catfish play, on blue bayou
D7 G Gm
All those fishing boats, with their sails afloat, if I could only see
D A7 D
That familiar sunrise, through sleepy eyes, how happy I'd be
[Verse]
D
Go to see my baby again,
A7
and to be with some of my friends
D
Maybe I'd be happy then, on blue bayou
[Chorus]
D A7
I'm going back some day, gonna stay, on blue bayou
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 A7 D
Oh, some sweet day, gonna take away, this hurting inside
[Outro]
A7 Em A7 D
I'll never be blue, my dreams come true, on blue bayou
D
