Kentucky Bluebird
by Wade Hayes (Keith Whitley)
tabbed by matellmon
E B
Blown down the highway by two different winds
E A5
Lord only knows when I'll see you again
E B
You're 'bout as close as the stars up above
A5
You're my long distance love
[Chorus]
A5 E
Kentucky Blue-bird
A5 B E
I heard your song today
A5 E B A5 B
But when I try to touch you, you fly away
[Verse]
E B
Blue is a feeling I'm learning so well
E A5
Turn on the TV in another hotel
E B
Turn down the volume and stare at the wall
A5
God I wish you would call
[Chorus]
A5 E
Kentucky Blue-bird
A5 B E
I heard your song today
A5 E B A5 B
But when I try to touch you, you fly away
[Bridge]
Bm B
How I hate the miles between us
A5 B E
They get longer each day
Bm B
I had this dream and you should have seen us
A5 B
Holding each other and drifting away
[Chorus]
A5 E
Kentucky Blue-bird
A5 B E
I heard your song today
A5 E B A5 B
But when I try to touch you, you fly away
A5 E
Kentucky Blue-bird
A5 B E
I heard your song today
A5 E B A5
But when I try to touch you, you fly away
[Outro]
E A5
you fly away
