INTRO: (Fiddle)
D G D A D
CHORUS:
D G D
Blue bonnet breezes bring precious moments to mind
D G
Blue bonnet breezes stirring up memories of romance and passion
D
Making a sweet place in time
D
A girl and a boy with high hopes and joy
G
Doing whatever they please
G D Bm
With a love in their eyes 'neath the wide, open sky
D A D
Makin' love in the blue bonnet breeze
VERSE:
D G
The story is old, it's often been told
D A
Of a rich city boy and poor country girl
D G
Their families tried hard to keep them apart
D A D
But they became each other's world
VERSE:
D
He asked her to marry
G
Of course, she said yes
D A
When he knelt there on his bended knee
D
They promised forever
G
No matter whatever
D A D
As they kissed in the blue bonnet breeze
CHORUS:
D G D
Blue bonnet breezes bring precious moments to mind
D G
Blue bonnet breezes stirring up memories of romance and passion
D
Making a sweet place in time
D
A girl and a boy with high hopes and joy
G
Doing whatever they please
G D Bm
With a love in their eyes 'neath the wide, open sky
D A D
Makin' love in the blue bonnet breeze
VERSE:
D G
The father said no in voice loud and cold
D A
"Oh, what's of your future and school?"
D G
"This won't be allowed," his mother said proud
D A
"We won't let you be such a fool"
VERSE:
D G
I'm your Juliet, I'm your Romeo
D A
They said as they walked hand-in-hand
D G
They knew in their hearts, they could not live apart
D A D
So they started making their plans
BREAK: (Dolly Parton talks this part... however, I play it
similar to how the VERSE was played. That choice is
yours to decide how you wish to handle this par.)
D G
So she rented a bridal gown, he rented a tux
D A
A bouquet of bluebonnets and, in his fancy new truck
D G
They drove faster and faster, as fast as could go
D A D
'Til they crashed in a field of bluebonnets below
D G
They placed a marker saying may you rest in peace
D A D
Now their souls soar together in the blue bonnet breeze
