Gulf Coast Highway, [G] he [D] worked the rails He worked the rice fields with their cool [G] dark
wells He worked [Bm] the oil rigs [A] in the Gulf of [D] Mexico
The only [G] thing we've ever [D] owned is this [A] old house here [D] by the road
And when [Bm] he dies, he says [A] he'll catch some [D] blackbird's wing
And [G] we'll fly away [D] to heaven, come [A] some sweet blue [D] bonnet spring
She walked through springtime when [G]
I was [D] home
[G] [D] The days were sweet, our nights were [G] warm
The seasons [Bm] change, the jobs will [A] come, the flowers [D] fade
And this old [G] house felt so [D] alone when the [A] work took me [D] away
And when [Em] she [Bm] dies, she says [A] she'll catch some [D] blackbird's wing
And she will [G] fly away to [D] heaven, come some [A] sweet blue bonnet [D] spring

[D] night, [G] the [D] jobs are gone
We tend our garden, we set [G] the sun
This is [B] the only [Bm] place [C#m] on [A] earth where bonnets [D] grow
And once [G] a year they come and [D] go, this [A] old house here by [D] the road
And when we [Bm] die, he says [A] he'll catch some [D] blackbird's wing
And we will [G] fly away to [D] heaven, come some [A] sweet blue [D] bonnet spring
Yes, when we [Bm] die, he says [A] he'll catch some [D] blackbird's wing
And we will [G] fly away to [Bm] heaven, come [A] some sweet blue [D] bonnet spring
