[C]
When you wake up in the morning and can't seem to raise your head, you sit [G] staring in the teacup at the egg upon your bread.
[C] And the life that you are living doesn't seem to be quite real, you have [G] only what the lonely [C] call the blues.
When you're feeling tired and weary with your eyes cast to the floor, [G] for a loved one who has left you on a bleak and distant shore,
[F#] you [C] may think you're being picked on, but you are not the first to [G] have only what the lonely [C] call the blues.
[G] La la la la, la [C] la la la la la la la, la la la la, you [G] have only what the lonely call [C] the blues.
[E] [F] There are no rules [G] to follow, [C] no advice [Am] to take, [Dm] you're the only [G] one who [C] can give yourself a [E] shade.
[F] Someone will [G] appear [E] to dispel all [Am] your fear [Dm] in a [D] funny, unexpected [G] way.
