Tom : Cm
G Cm
I'm lost in the night
D G Cm
The icy wind is howlin' out your name
Dm G C
And desolation lingers like a fog
Bbm D
The fire is growing dimmer in the wind
[Chorus]
G Cm
I'm out in the rain
D G Cm
The moon has gone behind the cloud again
D G C
And I can't stand to live another day
Bbm D G
'Cause my bluebird went away
Cm Fm
And I'm locked in this room with my sorrow
F C
No escape, no way to get away
Cm Fm
And my only connection with tomorrow
Bb C C D
Is hoping that you might decide not to stay away
[Chorus 2]
G Fm
Oh I'm out on a limb
D G Cm
If I could only find sweet love again
D G C
To live my life this way is too much to bear
Bbm D G
Can't find my bluebird anywhere
[Chorus 3]
Cm
I'm out in the rain
G G
The moon has gone behind the cloud again
D G C
I can't stand to live another day
Bbm Cm G
Bluebird why'd you go away
Bbm Cm D G
Bluebird why'd you go away
