See, I'm gonna do an older song because the great Townes Van Zandt said you can't do a set without [Gm] doing a blues.
So, I've already played once today, so I've already done one blues song, but can't do a set without doing a blues.
So, [Gb] here's one of my [Abm] own.

When I got this woman, she can't treat me right, she just stay out drinking till the morning [Bb] light.
I [C] said bye bye baby, wherever you [G] may be baby mama.
[D] Well, you [Bb] goddamn mother [E] man don't know what you need [Gm] with [G] me baby.
I went to the station and got on that train, I went in, told the conductor get this thing a-moving man.
[Bb] I said [C] bye bye baby, wherever you [G] may be now.
[D] Well, you [Bb] goddamn mother [E] man don't know what you need [Gm] with me [G] baby.
So, [Bb] [C]

[F] [Gm]
[E] [G]
now here I go down these railroad tracks headed down to Memphis and ain't coming [Bb] back.
I [C] said bye bye baby, wherever you [Gm] [G] may be.
Oh mama, [F] well you [Gm] goddamn mother man [E] know what you need [G] with me baby.
There comes that train, I said.

[Gm] [D] [Bb]
[E] [G]
Baby, I'm yanking, finally relaxed with it, sure feels good to not have you upon my [Bb] back.
I [E] said bye bye baby, wherever you [G] may be.
Oh yeah, [Gm] [D] well you goddamn [Bb] mother man [E] don't know what you need [Gm] with [G] me baby.
I [C] said bye bye baby, wherever [G] you are mama.
[D] Well, I'm halfway [Gm] to Jackson [E] now and ma, I ain't missing you [G] so far.
Well, I'm halfway [E] to Jackson now and I [G] ain't missing you so far baby ma.
Shhh.
