Blue Smoke

Merle Travis


Tom: G

     G                               C         A7
Blue smoke goes drifting by into the deep blue sky
    D               D7           G    D7
And when I think of home I sadly sigh
   G                               C
Oh I can see you there with loving tears in your eyes
D            D7            G        G7
As we fondly said our last goodbyes.

CHORUS
    C                       G
And as I sailed away with a longing to stay
  A7                          D         D7
I promised I'd be true and to love only you
     G                   C            A7
Blue smoke goes drifting by into the deep blue sky
   D           D7              G   D7
My memories of home will never die.
