Leon, you [Eb] sure do [F] look like you've got the miseries.
[Db] Hank, I ain't got no miseries.
I [C] got the blues.
[Cm] That's what's the [Bb] matter with me.
[Bbm] Well, man, the birds are singing in [Ebm] the trees and the sun's shining.
[Bbm] You shouldn't have no blues.
I [C] know I [F] shouldn't have them, but I got [Bbm] every known indication of [C] being in that condition.
[Bbm] Well, what's the matter?
Did they lock up your [Ebm] bootlegger?
Don't [F] behave yourself.
[Bbm] It's worse than that.
I went home this morning [Ebm] and peeked [F] through the window and that sweet [Bbm] thing of mine had done caught out.
Oh, [Ebm] Lord.
Now I got them [Bbm] lovesick blues.
Now [Ebm] that is bad.
[F]
[Bb] I'm in love, I'm in love with a beautiful gal.
[F] That's what's the matter [Bb] with me.
[F]
[Bb] I'm in love, [F] I'm in [Bb] love with a beautiful [F] [Db] gal, [Eb] but she don't care [Ab] about me.
To make her love me, I tried.
Lord, [Fm] I was sad and I cried, [F] but she just [Bb] refused.
[Eb] And ever [Ab] [Gm] since my [Fm] mama's [Eb] gone [F]
away, [Eb] I've got [Ebm] them [Eb]
[Ab] lovesick blues.
I've got a feeling [Db] called the blues.
Oh, Lord, since my mama [Ab] said goodbye,
it seems I don't know what to do, Lulu.
All I do is sit and [Db] cry.
Oh, Lord, [Gb] the last long day we spent alone, [Eb]
[Db] I'm yearning for [Bb] again.
[Gb]
[Eb] It fills me, [Bbm] fills me with a kind of loving.
[Ab] I never will forget the way she called me [Db] sweet.
Daddy was just [Abm] a beautiful [Ab] dream.
I hate to think it's all over.
I lost [Gb] my [F] heart, it seems.
Oh, [Db] Lord, [Ebm] I [Ab] got [Gb] so used to her [Gm] somehow.
[Dbm] Better nobody [B] say [Bb] goodbye, but now it's over [Eb] when you're gone, son.
