Going down the road to [Eb] see Bessie,
and then [Bb] when I get there, [Eb] I'm wondering what [Bb] to do.
[Eb] [Bb]
[A] [Gm] Bessie was more than [C] just a friend of [Eb] mine.
[Bb] [Gb] [Gm] So amazing how [C] we got on.

[Am] Now in [Gm] my day, I [C] made some foolish [Eb]
moves,
[Bb] [Gb] but [Gm] back then I didn't worry [C] about a thing.
[Eb]
[Bb] [Gb] [Gm] Now again, [C] I still wonder, [Eb]
[Bb] [D] was it [Gm] her sweet love,
or [C] the ways she could sing?
[Eb] Whoa.

[Db]
[Bb] Now [Gb] so much [Gm] time [C] has gone right [Eb] on by,
[Bb] [F] I [Gm] didn't think one could [C] be so wrong.
[Eb]
[Bb] And [A] then one [Gm] night, I was drinking [C] and thinking,
[Eb] and [Bb] [A] in the bottom, [Gm] the bottom of my [C] glass,
I could see Bessie's face [Eb] so strong.
[Bb] I'm just going down the road to [Eb] see Bessie,
[Bb] oh, see [F] you soon.
[Bb] Going down the road to [Eb] see Bessie Smith,
and [Bb] when I get there, [Eb] I'm wondering what [Bb] to do.
When she sees me, will [Eb] she know what I've been [Bb] through?
The old times get [Eb] the feeling [Bb] like the new,
and all I have, [Eb] I'll be bringing it to [Bb] you.
Bessie, [Eb] sing them [Bb] old time blues.
