Keith Whitley – Kentucky Bluebird (Guitar)

E                         A
Blown down the highway by two different winds

E                         A
Lord only knows when I'll see you again

C#m                          A
You're 'bout as close as the stars up above

          B
You're my long distance love

A            E     A                   B
Kentucky Bluebird, I heard your song today

A                 C#m            B    A
But when I try to touch you, you fly away

E                     A
Blue is a feeling I'm learning so well

E                   A
Turn on the TV in another hotel

C#m                      A
Turn down the volume and stare at the wall

       B
God I wish you would call

A            E     A                   B
Kentucky Bluebird, I heard your song today

A                 C#m             B    A
But when I try to touch you, you fly away

C#m            A
How I hate the miles between us

     B               E
They get longer each day

C#m                      A
I had this dream and you should have seen us

B
Holding each other and drifting away

A            E     A                   B
Kentucky Bluebird, I heard your song today

A                 C#m             B   A
But when I try to touch you, you fly away

C#m      E
You fly away.
