[Bm] [A]
[F#m] [D] [G]
[D] [A]
[D] The Coast Highway, [G] he worked [D] the rail, he worked the rice fields with their cool [G] dark wells.
He worked [Bm] the oil rigs [A] in the Gulf of [D] Mexico.
The only [G] thing we've ever [D] owned is this [A] old house here [D] by the road.
And when [Bm] he dies, he says [A] he'll catch some [D] blackbird's wing.
[G] We'll fly away [D] to heaven, come [A] some sweet [D] Luvonid spring.
She walked through springtime when [G]
I was [D] home.
[G] [D] The days were sweet, our nights were [G] warm.
The seasons [Bm] changed, the jobs would [A] come, the flowers [D] fade.
And this old [G] house felt so [D] alone when the work [A] took me [D] away.
And when [Bm] she dies, she says [A] she'll catch some [D] blackbird's wing.
And she will [G] fly away to [D] heaven, come some [A] sweet [D] Luvonid spring.
[F#] [C#]
[F#]
[B] [E] [A]
[D] Highway night, [G] the [D] jobs are gone.
We tend our garden, we set [G] sun.
This is [B] the only [Bm]
place [C#m] on earth [A] Luvonids [D] grow.
And once [G] a year they come [D] and go, this [A] old house here [D] by the road.
And when [Bm] we die, he'll say [A] we'll catch some [D] blackbird's wing.
And we'll [G] fly away [D] to heaven, come [A] some sweet [D] Luvonid spring.
Yes, when we [Bm] die, he'll say [A] we'll catch some [D] blackbird's wing.
And we [G] will fly away [Bm] together, come [A] some sweet [D] Luvonid spring.
