Kentucky Bluebird (Send A Message To Martha)
F Bb
Spread your wings for New Orleans
Bbm F
Kentucky bluebird, fly away
And take a message to Martha, message to Martha
Bb
She sings each night in some cafe
F Bbmaj7
In her search to find wealth and fame
C C7 F
I hear Martha has gone and changed her name
It's a year since she was here
Kentucky bluebird, fly away
And take a message to Martha, message to Martha
Tell her I miss her more each day
As her train pulled out down the track
Martha promised she'd soon be coming back
C Am
Oh tell her how my heart just breaks, in two
F
Since she journeyed far
C Am
And even though her dreams of fame fell through
Bbmaj7 C
To me she will always be a star
Spread your wings for New Orleans
Kentucky bluebird, fly away
And take a message to Martha, message to Martha
Ask her to start for home today
When you find her please let her know
Rich or poor, I will always love her so
F Bb
Fly away, Kentucky bluebird (repeat and fade)
