Glad Bluebird Of Happiness
Tuning:E A D G B E
Key:C
Capo:no capo
[Intro]
C
[Verse 1]
C E7
I was walking down the road, not caring much where I was going
Dm G C
A heavy pack upon my back, my worldly goods within a sack of loneliness
E7
When fluttered by this bird of blue, he said, "I'll tell you what I'll do
Dm G
Since you seem to be so sad, I will try and be your glad
C
Bluebird of happiness."
[Chorus]
F C
And he goes flying out over the ocean blue
G C
Bound for places I'm not known to
[Verse 2]
C E7
I decided to follow him, my thoughts have faded dim since then
Dm G
Blown foggy by the wind a paced, as from shore to shore we race
C
Move from place to place
E7
The moon is hot, the stars are cold. I've been there, that's how I know
Dm
I've touched the desert sunset's coat
G7 C
Tasted of the melted snows of Kilimanjaro
[Chorus]
F C
And he goes flying out over the ocean blue
G7 C
Bound for places I'm not known to
[Verse 3]
C E7
I'll follow that bird until he dies and when he does then so will I
Dm G
I know I'll never be the same, life for me is bound to change
C
When death ends the chase
E
I'll lift his body from the sea, pat him dry in a tradewind breeze
Dm G
Find some merry christmas hues, wrap him up and give him to you
C
My bluebird of happiness
[Out-Chorus]
F C
And he goes flying out over the ocean blue
G C
Bound for places I'm not known to
