Bluebird Blues
Weatherton / Thompson c. 2001

Since I got the news
I feel like cryin’
Bluebird Blues
You found somebody new
I’m finally through
with all of your lyin’
Now I’m cryin’ over you

Since you were untrue
I feel like diein’
Bluebird Blues
Gonna fly away from you
I’m tellin’ you now
There’s no use denyin’
Still I’m diein’ over you

How dare you think
you could walk through my door
laughin’ through your alibi’s
How can I find
a way to forgive
her fire still
burns in your eyes
There’s nothing left
of the life that we had
before you changed your song
Some day I might
forgive you
when this Bluebird is gone

How dare you think
you could walk through that door
laughin’ through your alibi’s
How can I find
a way to forgive
her fire still
burns in your eyes
There’s nothing left
of the life that we had
before you changed your song
Some day I might
forgive you
when this Bluebird is gone

The night is blue
I feel like flyin’
Bluebird Blues
Gonna Fly away from you
Until that day
I’m gonna keep on cryin’
Cryin’ the Bluebird Blues
Bluebird Blues
(Cryin’ the)
Bluebird Blues
(Cryin’ the)
