Better Off With The Blues Chords by Delbert Mcclinton

[A] _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _
[Dm] _ [D] _ [G] _ [D] _ _ [A] _ _ [D]
Since you've [Dm] been gone, [D] I've had time to myself.
[G] _ [D]
Haven't [Dm] even tried to find somebody else.
[G] When you told me you were leaving, you know it almost came as [D] good [C] news.
[D] _ _ _ _ It [A] may sound funny, but it's true.
[F] [G] I think I'm better [F] off with the [D] blues.
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ [D] Now I must admit that I miss you sometimes.
Now the day goes by that you don't [C] cross my [D] mind.
[G] But at the same time, I think of all you [D] put me through.
_ [G] _ [D] _ _ Yeah, [A] it's a lesser of two evils.
[G] I think I'm better off with [D] the blues.
I [Em] _ [D] _ [E] _ [F] _ [F#] _ [G]
know someday I'll wake up and this blues will be gone.
_ [D]
I'll forget about you and how everything went wrong.
[G] But if you had stayed, I'd be dead in my [C] tracks.
[A] Now I still love you, baby, but I don't want you back.
[D] Tonight I'm gonna go down to the saddest side of town. _
Listen to them play the blues when the sun goes down.
[G] And I'll know just what to say when someone asks [D] about you.
[F] _ [D] _ _ _ _ [A] I'll say, yeah, we had our good [G] time, but I think I'm better [D] off with the blues.
[F] _ [D] _ _ _ _ [A] Yeah, if I had to choose, [A#] I'd [G] say I'm better off [D] with the blues.
