[Verse 1]
G C Gulf coast highway, he worked the rails C He worked the rice fields with their cool, dark wells Em D G He worked the oil rigs in the Gulf of Mexico C G D G The only thing we've ever owned is this old house here by the road Em D G And when he dies he says he'll catch some blackbird's wing C G D G And he will fly away to heaven, come some sweet Bluebonnet spring.
[Verse 2]
G C She walked through springtime when I was home C Our days were sweet, our nights were warm Em D G The seasons changed, the jobs would come, the flowers fade C G D G And this house felt so alone, when the work took me away Em D G And when she dies he says she'll catch some blackbird's wing C G D G And she will fly away to heaven, come some sweet Bluebonnet spring.

G C Highway 90, the jobs are gone now C We tend our garden and we set the sun
[Garden Interlude]
C G D Em Let the songs I sing, bring joy to You C G D Let the words I say profess my love C G D Em Let the notes I choose, be Your favorite tune C D G And Father let my heart be after You
[Verse 3 Cont.]
Em D G This is the only place on earth Blue Bonnets grow C G D G And once a year they come and go at this old house here by the road Em D G And when we die we say we'll catch some blackbird's wing C G D G And we will fly away to heaven, come some sweet Bluebonnet spring.
[Outro]
Em D G And when we die we say we'll catch some blackbird's wing C G D G And we will fly away together, come some sweet Bluebonnet spring.
