Intro:
|C/G-Cmaj7/G|
Verse 1:
C/G-Cmaj7/G
Janie, see how good the sky looks today,
A-Asus2
I'll bet they're having fun up in Byron Bay - all our friends,
C/G-Cmaj7/G
Oh, I'm feeling just a little bit blue.
A-Asus2
I can tell it's been getting to you too - trying to make sense,
D-Dsus2 C/G-Cmaj7/G
And the Sun - is shining up the end of the road,
G-Gsus2
We don't even know where it goes,
A-Asus2
We're outsiders without even knowing why.
Chorus 1:
D-Dsus2
And I've got them Blue Bay Blues,
C/G-Cmaj7/G
I've got them Blue Bay Blues,
G-Gsus2 A-Asus2
I've got them Blue Bay Blues. - Now why?
Bridge:
|C/G-Cmaj7/G|
Verse 2:
C/G-Cmaj7/G
Nowa-days - we don't see so many friends here in town,
A-Asus2
But I try not to let it get me down - guess they all got out?
C/G-Cmaj7/G
I remember when we thought that we could fight it -
A-Asus2
I guess we got born in the wrong time - hid by clouds,
D-Dsus2 C/G-Cmaj7/G
And the Sun - is shining up the end of the road,
G-Gsus2
We don't even know where it goes,
A-Asus2
We're outsiders without even knowing why.
Chorus 2:
D-Dsus2
And I've got them Blue Bay Blues,
C/G-Cmaj7/G
I've got them Blue Bay Blues,
G-Gsus2 A-Asus2
I've got them Blue Bay Blues. - Now why?
Instrumental:
|D-Dsus2 C/G-Cmaj7/G|G-Gsus2 A-Asus2|
Verse 3: (Middle-Eight & Pre-Chorus)
G-Gsus2 Em-Em7
From day to day I get less sure,
A-A7sus4 D-Dsus2
Of where the other guy is going -
G-Gsus2 Em-Em7
He's acting just as if he knows it all,
A-A7sus4 D-Dsus2
But the seeds of doubt are sown.
C/G-Cmaj7/G
And the Sun - is shining up the end of the road,
G-Gsus2
We don't even know where it goes,
A-Asus2
We're outsiders without even knowing why.
Chorus 3:
D-Dsus2
And I've got them Blue Bay Blues,
C/G-Cmaj7/G
I've got them Blue Bay Blues,
G-Gsus2 A-Asus2
I've got them Blue Bay Blues. - Now why?
Chorus 4:
D-Dsus2
I've got them Blue Bay Blues,
C/G-Cmaj7/G
Mama - I've got them Blue Bay Blues,
G-Gsus2 A-Asus2
I've got them Blue Bay Blues. - Now why?
Chorus 5:
D-Dsus2
I've got them Blue Bay Blues,
C/G-Cmaj7/G
Mama - I've got them Blue Bay Blues,
G-Gsus2 A-Asus2
I've got them Blue Bay Blues. - Why, why, why?

Notes.
1. From the promo: "Some of the songs on REWIRED are (more than) thirty years old.
They have stood the test of time. Many of them have never been off the radio for
the last 20 years in Australia. Reconstructing them acoustically allows us to
hear them afresh."
2. This version differs from the original by being a semi-tone lower and the
finger-picked complexity has been simplified. The flat picked arpeggiated chords
are accompanied by a slide-guitar in this REWIRED version.
