Chords with lyrics
C majorC Gulf coast highway, he worked the rails FF He worked the rice fields with their cool, dark wells A minorAm G+G C majorC He worked the oil rigs in the Gulf of Mexico FF C majorC G+G C majorC The only thing we've ever owned is this old house here by the road A minorAm G+G C majorC And when he dies he says he'll catch some blackbird's wing FF C majorC G+G C majorC And he will fly away to heaven, come some sweet Blue Bonnet spring. C majorC She walked through springtime when I was home FF Our days were sweet, our nights were warm A minorAm G+G C majorC The seasons changed, the jobs would come, the flowers fade FF C majorC G+G C majorC And this house felt so alone, when the work took me away A minorAm G+G C majorC And when she dies he says she'll catch some blackbird's wing FF C majorC G+G C majorC And she will fly away to heaven, come some sweet Blue Bonnet spring. C majorC Higway 90, the jobs are gone now FF We tend our garden and we set the sun A minorAm G+G C majorC This is the only place on earth Blue Bonnets grow FF C majorC G+G C majorC And once a year they come and go at this old house here by the road A minorAm G+G C majorC And when we die we say we'll catch some blackbird's wing FF C majorC G+G C majorC And we will fly away to heaven, come some sweet Blue Bonnet spring. A minorAm G+G C majorC And when we die we say we'll catch some blackbird's wing FF C majorC G+G C majorC
