I'm  lost in the night The  icy wind is howling  out your name
and  desolation lingers like a fog And the fires  growing dimmer in the wind
I'm  out in the rain The  moon has  gone behind the cloud  again
And  I can't stand to live another day  cause my bluebird went  away
 And I'm lost  in this room with my sorrow,  No  escape, no way to get away
 And my only  connection with tomorrow  is hoping  that you might  decide
not  to stay away
I'm  out on a limb  If  I could only find  sweet love again
Living  my live this way is too much to bear
Can't  find my blue bird anywhere, anywhere
Oooh--ooh-oooh,  etc.
I'm  lost in the night  The  icy wind is howling  out your name
and  desolation lingers like a fog And  the fires growing dimmer  in the wind
I'm  out in the rain  The  moon has gone behind  the cloud  again
 And  I can't stand to live another day
Bluebird  why did you go away
Tell  me bluebird why did you  go away
Oh  little bluebird why did you go  away won't you tell me
 Play F/E as a bar chord F with the 6th string uncovered and hammer on the open bass note E string.
 The F chord before the F/E should be played as a full bar chord (with an F bass note).
