-3 3 -3 -2 -3* -3 3
Spread your wings for New Or-leans
-2 2 -1 1* 3 3 -3 3 -3
Ken-tuck-y blue-bird, fly a-way
-2 -3 -3* 4 4 -3 4 -3
And take a mes-sage to Mi-chael,
4 -3 -5 4 -3
Mes-sage to Mi-chael
4 -3 -5 4 -3 -3* -3 3
He sings each night in some ca-fe
-2 3 -3 3 -3 -3* 4 -5
In his search to find wealth and fame
4 3 4 3 -3 -3*
I hear Mi-chael has gone
-3* -3 3 -2
and changed his name
-3 3 -3 -2 -3* -3 3
It’s a year since he was here
-2 2 -1 1* 3 -3 3 -3
Ken-tuck-y blue-bird, fly a-way
-2 -3 -3* 4 4 -3 4 -3
And take a mes-sage to Mi-chael,
4 -3 -5 4 -3
Mes-sage to Mi-chael
4 -3 -5 4 -3 -3* -3 3
Tell him I miss him more each day
-2 3 -3 3 -3 -3* 4 -5
As his train pulled out down the track
4 3 4 3 -3 -3* -3* -3 3 -2
Mi-chael prom-ised he’d soon be com-ing back
4 -5 6 -5 5 -5 6 5 -5 4
Oh tell him how my heart just breaks in two
-3* -3 3 -3* 4
Since he jour-neyed far
4 -5 6 -5 5 -5
And e-ven though his dream
6 5 -5 4
of fame fell through
-3 -3*-3 4 -3* -3 3 4 4
To me he will al-ways be a star
-3 3 -3 -2 -3* -3 3
Spread your wings for New Or-leans
-2 2 -1 1* 3 -3 3 -3
Ken-tuck-y blue-bird, fly a-way
-2 -3 -3* 4 4 -3 4 -3
And take a mes-sage to Mi-chael,
4 -3 -5 4 -3
Mes-sage to Mi-chael
4 -3 -5 4 -3 -3* -3 3
Ask him to start for home to-day
-2 3 -3 3 -3 -3* 4 -5
When you find him please let him know
4 3 4 3 -3 -3* -3* -3 3 -2
Rich or poor I will al-ways love him so
-3 3 -3 -2 -3* -3 3 -2 3
Fly a-way Ken-tuck-y blue-bird
-3 3 -3 -2 -6 6 -5 5 -3*-5
Fly a-way Ken-tuck-y blue-bird
-3 3 -3 -3 3 -3
Fly a-way Fly a-way
