Verse 1
Em 
D 
A 
Now, this is all rough,
D 
Em 
D 
but that's all right, isn't it? We don't have...
Em 
I don't have to do a performance.
D 
This is a living room rehearsal.
It feels so bad, I've a worried mind
A 
I've been so lonesome all the time
Since I left my baby behind
D 
on the blue -by -blue
Save a nickel, save a dime
A 
Work until the sun don't shine
Looking forward to happier times
D 
on the blue -by -blue
I'm going back someday,
A 
come what may to Blue Bayou
Where the folks are fine
D 
and the world is mine on Blue Bayou
Were those fishing boats,
Bbaug 
were their sails afloat,
D 
G 
Gm 
if I  could only see
D 
A 
That familiar sunrise,
through sleepy eyes,
D 
how happy I'd be
I'm going to see my baby again
A 
I'm going to be with some of my friends
And maybe I'll feel better again,
D 
on my own, by myself
Save a nickel, save a dime
A 
Or work until the sun don't shine
Looking forward to happier times
D 
on Blue Bayou
I'm going back someday,
A 
come what may, to Blue Bayou
Where you sleep all day,
D 
the catfish play on Blue Bayou
Were those fishing boats,
Bbaug 
D 
G 
Gm 
were their sails afloat,  if I  could only see
D 
A 
That familiar sunrise,
through sleepy eyes,
D 
A 
how happy I'd be
D 
And that girl of mine, by my side,
G 
Gm 
Eb 
A 
the silver moon and the evenin' tide.
D 
A 
Oh, some sweet day
gonna take away
D 
this hurtin' inside.
A 
And I'll never be blue,
and dreams come true,
un -blue by you.
D
