| My | ship set | sail to | Bluebird | Island |
| G7 | C | |
| And slowly | drifted out to | sea |
| G7 | C | F | C | |
| Her | silver | sails to | cross the | ocean |

| My lover's | lonely heart set | free. |

| Then out a- | cross the | waves, the | bluebirds | came one day |
| G7 | C | |
| Out | o'er the silver sea, your | message brought to me |
| D | G7 | |
| To | sail my ship of love along the | moonlit bay |
| D | G7 | |
| And | anchor in the harbor of your | heart. |

| The trade winds | there on | Bluebird | Island |
| G7 | C | |
| Soon dried her | lonely tears a- | way |
| G7 | C | F | C | |
| The | treasure | I found | broken- | hearted |
| G7 | C | |
| Was locked | within my heart to | stay. |
