_ _ _ _ [Dm] _ [Ab] _ _ [Dm] _
_ _ _ [A] _ [Dm] Oh daddy I've been [E] weepin' [Dm] weepin' like a [Dm] willow tree _
[Ab] Ain't had a wink of [Bm] sleepin' _ [E] [A] where is your [D] sympathy?
All [Bb] is black [Ab] down my shack since [A] you said [E] goodbye [A] to me
_ [Bb] _ _ [Gb] Meanest [Cm] sweetie daddy mine
I recall a [Bb] time you [F] used to love your mama [Bb] best of all
[G] Now [Cm] maybe I shouldn't bring [F] it up
But you [Bb] really made me fall you chocolate baby doll
[Eb] And [D] now I'm shy and _ cryin'
Oh I'd like to know what made you go
If you've [C] got someone [C] callin' [Db] you [F] hon
I'm gonna go and get myself a great big gatlin' [Eb] gun
[Cm] And I'm [F] gonna shoot you dead, dead, dead
I'm gonna [Bb] send a lot of bullets [Bb] through your [A] head
And [G] if they send seventy detectives after me
[Cm] All they're [G] gonna hear is bad old [Cm] news
Cause they won't [Eb] give [Bb] a hoot after they've heard the reason why
I was compelled [G] for a shoot
[C] Oh me oh my your mama's got those [F] canes refused
[Bb] Shootin' [C] blues
[Dm] _ _
[Eb] I'm singin' the blues
[D] [Bb] Because I just can't be gay since you've gone
I [Cm] drank a whole [F] ocean of [Cm] gin, ooh what a sin
[Bb] But couldn't drown the sorrow by [D] drinkin' that bad old gin
Ain't nobody can do, do [G] anything that'll bring peace of mind
You're the only-est man [C] I know
That can love a gal [C] and leave you the hit and [Cm] run kind
[Gm] _ _ [F] Anybody gets my nerves [Bb] every time I [Eb] hear myself [A] moan
And if I [G] got everything I mean lovin' I [Cm] really deserve
I wouldn't be here alone
Oh pretty papa, heed my [Db] pleadin' cause you know what I need
[Bb] Don't leave me all [G] _ _
_ [C] alone
Singin' the [G] blues
[C] Till my [F] daddy comes home
[Bb] _ [Gm] _ [Bb] _ _ _
