🎸 Verse:
      C majorC
Gulf Coast Highway
  FF     C majorC
He worked the rails

He worked the rice fields
         FF
With their cool, dark wells

       A minorAm        G+G     C majorC
He worked the oil rigs in the Gulf of Mexico
     FF        C majorC
The only thing he's ever owned
       G+G         C majorC
Is this old house here by the road

🎸 Chorus:
       A minorAm
And when he dies
        G+G           C majorC
He says he'll catch some blackbird's wing
     FF      C majorC
He will fly away to Heaven
      G+G         C majorC   C majorC  C majorC
Come some sweet, blue bonnet spring


🎸 Verse:
          C majorC
She walked through springtime
   FF    C majorC
Whеn he was home

The days werе sweet
         FF
The nights were warm

       A minorAm           G+G         C majorC
The seasons change, the jobs would come, the flowers fade
       FF       C majorC
And this old house felt so alone
     G+G       C majorC
When the work took me away

🎸 Chorus:
       A minorAm
And when she dies
         G+G           C majorC
She says she'll catch some blackbird's wing
     FF      C majorC
She will fly away to Heaven
      G+G         C majorC
Come some sweet, blue bonnet spring

Highway 90
 FF    C majorC
Jobs are gone

They tend their garden
       FF
They set the sun

      A minorAm       G+G         C majorC
This is the only place on Earth blue bonnets grow
    FF         C majorC
Once a year they come and go
     G+G         C majorC
This old house here by the road

And when they die

They say they'll catch some blackbird's wing

They will fly away to Heaven
   G+G         C majorC
Some sweet, blue bonnet spring

Yes, when we die we say
    G+G           C majorC
We'll catch some blackbird's wing
     FF     A minorAm
We will fly away together
   G+G         C majorC   C majorC
Some sweet blue bonnet spring
