[D] [C#m] [F#] [E] [A]
Just [B] around the [E] corner there's heartaches [A]
Down the [B] street that [E] lures you
[A] If you [B] can wait in [E] through the teardrops [A] You'll find me [B] at the home [E] of the blues
[A]
I [B] walk and cry [E] while my heart beats [A] Each time [B] with the drag [E] of my shoes
The [A]
sun [B] never shines [E] through this window of mine [A] It's dark [B] at the home [E] of the blues
Oh, [A] but the place is filled with the [E] sweetest memories [B]
Memories so sweet that [E] I cry
[A]
Dreams that I've had left [E] me feeling so bad [F#] I just want to give up and lay down [B] and die
[A] So [B] if you've just [E] lost your sweetheart [A] And it seems [B] there's no good [E] way to choose
[A] Come [B] along with me, [E] misery, love, company [A] You're welcome [B] at the [E] home of the blues
[A] [B] [E]

Just [B] around the [E] corner there's heartaches [A]
Down the [B] street that [E] lures you
[A] If you [B] can wait in [E] through the teardrops [A] You'll find me [B] at the home [E] of the blues
Yeah, [A] you're gonna find me [B] at the home [E] of the blues

Let's start jamming Johnny Cash - Home Of The Blues chords, practice the chord sequence A, B, E, A and E. I suggest starting at a calm pace of 41 BPM, and as you gain confidence, approach the song's BPM of 83. Align the capo with your vocal depth and chord choice, bearing in mind the song's original key: E Major.
