Tom: C

C  G7       C       F        C
My ship set sail to Bluebird Island
           G7             C
And slowly drifted out to sea
    G7     C        F         C
Her silver sails to cross the ocean
           G7               C
My lover's lonely heart set free.

C         F         C          G7        C
Then out across the waves, the bluebirds came one day
    G7                        C
Out o'er the silver sea, your message brought to me
   D                              G7
To sail my ship of love along the moonlit bay
    D                            G7
And anchor in the harbor of your heart.

                C        F        C
The trade winds there on Bluebird Island
               G7            C
Soon dried her lonely tears away
    G7       C       F      C
The treasure I found broken-hearted
           G7                 C
Was locked within my heart to stay.
