1. I [A] feel so bad, I got a worried mind, [E] I'm so lonesome all the time
[E] Since I left my baby behind on [A] Blue Bayou
[A] Saving nickels, saving dimes, [E] working till the sun don't shine
[E] Looking forward to happier times on [A] Blue Bayou

Chorus: I'm [A] going back someday, come what may to [E] Blue Bayou
Where the [E] folks are fine, and the world is mine on [A] Blue Bayou
Where those [A] fishing boats with their [A7] sails afloat, if [D] I could only [Dm6] see
That [A] familiar sunrise through [E] sleepy eyes, how [A] happy I'd be

2. [A] Gonna see my baby again; Gonna be [E] with some of my friends
[E] Maybe I'll feel better again on [A] Blue Bayou
[A] Saving nickels, [A] saving dimes; [E] working till the sun don't shine
[E] Looking forward to [E] happier times on [A] Blue Bayou

Chorus: I'm [A] going back someday, come what may to [E] Blue Bayou
Where the [E] folks are fine, and the world is mine on [A] Blue Bayou
Where those [A] fishing boats with their [A7] sails afloat, if [D] I could only [Dm6] see
That [A] familiar sunrise through [E] sleepy eyes, how [A] happy I'd be

[A][A]-[E][E]-[E][E]-[A][A]

Outro” Oh, that [A] boy of mine [A7] by my side,
the [D] silver moon and the [Dm6] evening time
Oh, [A] some sweet day, gonna [E] take away this [A] hurtin' inside
Well, I'd [E] never be blue, my dreams come true. on [E] Blue [E] Ba - [A] you
