Leftover Salmon - Blue Kentucky Sky

G     C     G
Somebody asked me if I'd been to old Kentucky
G    D
If I'd seen the green hills in the early morning light
G     C     G
I just laughed and smiled, said you know that I've been lucky
G     D     G
I've got visions of Kentucky, in every corner of my mind.

I fust saw Kentucky when I was seventeen
And I hitchhiked out of Pittsburg chasing bluegrass dreams
I went to my first festival and drank a little shine
Watching Bill Monroe sing the Walls of Time

Chorus:

Em G   
And them green Kentucky hills
Bm  Em
Rollin to the sky
G    Em
Ripplin waters flowin 
G         D
Under that Moonshine
C   G
Been around the World 
G   Em
But I've never rest my eyes
C     G
On a place as sweet as home
D        G
Under Blue Kentucky Skies
C     G
On a place as sweet as home
D        G
Under Blue Kentucky Sky


Well I've lived a life I've been up and I've been down
I have lived on porches and slept out on the ground
Well I've hung around mansions and all that I've found
That there's nothing ike a cabin in that Old Kentucky ground

[Chorus]

Jam (verse and chorus)

Well I go back to Kentucky just to play this old guitar
That's how I make my livin now, singing in these bars
But no matter how far I travel these days, no matter how far
I've got visions of Kentucky shining like a star

[Chorus]
