[Eb] _ [Ab] I was a pale-skinned [Eb] kid then, [Db] had to tell you all why [Eb] I sang the blues,

[Eb] _ _ _ [Ebm] _ _ [Bb] _ All [Eb] of the gin joints in the world,
I had to walk a little slow.
And then she runs,
Those big [Ebm] eyes, that [Bb] big voice,
And the [Eb] truth, and nothing but the truth.
Well, [Gb] maybe [Eb] a few things,
Only life, you know,
With [Bb] great care of legs and,
[Eb] _ Oh [Ebm] man,
_ [Db] Well I left it all behind [Eb] me,
And I healed it first,
[Ebm] And we shall do it [Eb] all over again.
Well, my sister will talk to me later,
She's blowing me [Db] off.
[Ebm] See you later.
[Eb] Waiter, check please.
