Blue Bayou chords
Roy Orbison *

 FF
I feel so bad I've got a worried mind,
C7C7
I'm so lonesome all the time;
                FF
since I left my baby behind on blue bayou

FF               C7C7
Saving nickels, saving dimes, working till the sun don't shine
                   FF
Looking forward to happier times, on blue bayou

     FF                C7C7
I'm going back some day, come what may, to blue bayou
                         FF
Where you sleep all day, and the catfish play, on blue bayou
     F7F7                     Bb majorBb      BbmBbm
All those fishing boats, with their sails afloat, if I could only see
   FF             C7C7        FF
That familiar sunrise, through sleepy eyes, how happy I'd be

FF
Go to see my baby again,
C7C7
and to be with some of my friends
              FF
Maybe I'd be happy then, on blue bayou

     FF               C7C7
I'm going back some day, gonna stay, on blue bayou
                          FF
Where the folks are fine, and the world is mine, on blue bayou
     F7F7              Bb majorBb             BbmBbm
Oh, that girl of mine, by my side, the silver moon and the evening tide
  FF           C7C7       FF
Oh, some sweet day, gonna take away, this hurtin inside

   C7C7                   G minorGm  C7C7 FF
I'll never be blue, my dreams come true, on blue bayou

FF
