Blue Bayou

1. I feel so bad I've got a worried mind, I'm
so lonesome all the time,
G7 C
since I left my baby behind on Blue Bayou.
2. (Bo-bo-bo dim-da-dee-ay)
C G
Savin' nickels, savin' dimes,
workin' 'til the sun don't shine,
G7 C
lookin' forward to happier times on Blue Bayou.
C G
I'm
goin' back some day, come what may, to Blue Bayou.
G7 C
Where you sleep all day and the catfish play on Blue Bayou.

All
those fishin' boats with their sails afloat, if I could only see,
C G7 C
that familiar sunrise thru sleepy eyes how happy I'd be.

C G
Oh,
to see my baby again, and to be with
some of my friends,
G7
C
maybe I'd be happy then on Blue Bayou.
C G
I'm
goin' back some day, gonna stay on Blue Bayou,
G7 C
where the folks are fine and the world is mine, on Blue Bayou.
C7 F Dm
Ah,
that girl of mine, by my side, the silver moon and the evening tide.
C G7 C
some sweet day gonna take away this hurtin' inside.
