Verse:

I got a big sur -prise, when I saw you smile

I nev -er dreamed that it could be

But now I re -al -ize since I saw you smile,

There's on -ly hap -pi -ness for me. So

 

Chorus:

Bye Bye Blues,

Bye Bye Blues,

Bells ring, birds sing,

Sun is shin -ing No more pin -ing.

Just we two,

Smil -ing thru,

Don't sigh, Don't cry,

Bye Bye Blues.
