I  
C 
feel so bad, I got a  
C 
worried 
 
mind;
G 
I’m so lonesome  
G 
all the time
G 
Since I left my  
G 
baby behind on  
C 
Blue 
 
Bayou
C 
 
C 
Saving nickels,  
C 
saving 
 
dimes;
G 
working till the  
G 
sun don’t shine
G 
Looking forward to  
G 
happier times on  
C 
Blue 
 
Bayou
C 
 
I’m  
C 
going back someday,  
C 
come what may to  
G 
Blue 
 
Bayou
G 
Where the  
C 
folks are fine, and the  
C 
world is mine on  
G 
Blue 
 
Bayou
G 
Where those  
C 
fishing boats with their  
C7 
sails afloat, if  
F 
I could only  
Fm6 
seeThat 
 
 
C 
familiar sunrise through  
G 
sleepy eyes, how  
C 
happy I’d be
C 

Gonna see my baby again
Gonna be with some of my friends
Maybe I’ll feel better again on Blue Bayou
Saving nickels, saving dimes
Working till the sun don’t shine
Looking forward to happier times on Blue Bayou

I’m going back someday, come what may to Blue Bayou
Where the folks are fine, and the world is mine on Blue Bayou
Where those fishing boats with their sails afloat, if I could only see
That familiar sunrise through sleepy eyes, how happy I’d be
