Spread your wings for New Or-leans
-2   2  -1 1* 3  3    -3  3 -3   
Ken-tuck-y blue-bird, fly a-way
-2   -3 -3* 4   4   -3 4   -3
And take a mes-sage to Mi-chael, 
 4   -3  -5 4   -3
Mes-sage to Mi-chael

4   -3    -5    4   -3 -3*  -3 3
He sings each night in some ca-fe
-2  3    -3   3   -3   -3*    4   -5
In his search to find wealth and fame
4  3   4    3   -3  -3*
I hear Mi-chael has gone 
-3*   -3     3   -2
and changed his name
 -3  3  -3   -2  -3* -3   3
It's a year since he was here

-2   2  -1  1*   3    -3  3 -3
Ken-tuck-y blue-bird, fly a-way
-2   -3 -3* 4   4   -3 4   -3
And take a mes-sage to Mi-chael, 
 4   -3  -5 4   -3
Mes-sage to Mi-chael
 4   -3 -5  4   -3  -3*   -3   3
Tell him I miss him more each day
-2  3   -3     3    -3   -3*  4   -5
As his train pulled out down the track
4    3    4    3    -3  -3* -3* -3   3   -2
Mi-chael prom-ised he'd soon be com-ing back
4   -5   6  -5  5   -5    6     5    -5  4
Oh tell him how my heart just breaks in two
 -3*  -3  3    -3*   4
Since he jour-neyed far
 4 -5  6    -5    5    -5
And e-ven though his dream 
6   5    -5     4
of fame fell through
-3 -3*-3  4  -3*  -3  3  4  4
To me he will al-ways be a star
  -3    3    -3   -2  -3* -3   3
Spread your wings for New Or-leans
-2   2  -1  1*   3    -3  3 -3
Ken-tuck-y blue-bird, fly a-way

-2   -3 -3* 4   4   -3 4   -3

 4   -3  -5 4   -3
Mes-sage to Mi-chael
 4  -3  -5   4   -3   -3* -3  3
Ask him to start for home to-day
 -2   3   -3   3    -3   -3*  4   -5
When you find him please let him know
 4   3   4   3  -3 -3*  -3*  -3   3  -2
Rich or poor I will al-ways love him so
