BLUE BAYOU Linda Ronstadt
Intro
[B]
BASS LINE
[B] [F#7]
[B]I feel so bad I got a worried mind [F#7]I'm so lonesome all the time
Since I left my baby behind on B[B]lue Bayou
[B]Saving nickels saving dimes
[F#7]working till the sun don't shine
Looking forward to happier times on Bl[B]ue Bayou
I'm going ba[B]ck someday, come what may to B[F#]lue Bayou
>F# B
Where the folks are fine, and the world is mine on Blue Bayou
Where those fi[B]shing boats with their s[B7]ails afloat if [E]I could only [F#7]see
That fa[F#]miliar sunrise through sleepy eyes how ha[B]ppy I'd be
[B]Gonna see my baby again G[F#7]onna be with some of my friends
Maybe I'll feel better again on B[B]lue Bayou
[B]Saving nickels saving dimes W[F#7]orking till the sun don't shine
[F#7]Looking forward to happier times on B[B]lue Bayou
I'm going b[B]ack someday, come what may to B[F#]lue Bayou
[F#]Where the folks are fine, and the world is mine on B[B]lue Bayou
Where those fis[B]hing boats with their s[B7]ails afloat, if [E]I could only [F#7]see
That fa[F#]miliar sunrise through sleepy eyes, how ha[B]ppy I'd be
lead with these chords. B F#7 B
Oh that b[B]oy of mine [B7]by my side, the si[E]lver moon and the e[F#7]vening time
Oh s[F#]ome sweet day gonna take away this hu[B]rtin' inside
W[F#]ell I'd never be blue my dreams come true
On Blue Bay-o[B]u
