Every morning _ _ _ when I wake _ [Bbm] up, _ _ Lord, I cry [Fm] a pool of tears.
_ [Cm] _ _ _ _ [Fm] _ _ _
Seven days [Gm] [Fm] now _ _ since you left me,
[Bbm] _ _ _
well, it seems like [Fm] seven years.
_ _ _ _ _ [Bbm] _ _ _
Loneliness _ keeps [Fm] hanging around my door.
_ [Bbm] And _ unwanted friends I [Fm] can't _ lose.
_ _ Every [Cm] _ day is the same [Bbm] doggone thing,
the 24 [Cm]-hour [Fm] blues. _
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ [Ab] _
_ [Bb] _ [Eb] _ _ _ [Fm] _ _ _
_ Lonely _ minutes _ turn into hours.
[Bbm] _ _
I keep waiting by [Fm] the telephone.
[Eb] But _ _ _ [Fm] _ _ _
you don't call [Bb] [Fm] me. _ _
_ I guess I'll be [Bbm] _ _
spending another sleepless [Fm] night alone.
_ _ _ _ _ [Bbm] _ _
I can't seem to get [Fm] _ _
myself _ _ together.
[Bbm] _ _ _
Without you, it's [Fm] all that new.
_ _ _ _ _ [Cm] Every day is the same [Bbm] doggone thing,
the [Cm] 24-hour [Fm] blues. _

_ _ _ _ _ [Bbm] _ _
If you don't hurry [Fm] on back to me,
_ _ [Bbm] _ _
then I have nothing [Fm] else to _ lose.
_ _ [Cm] Just these _ four great walls, _ [Bbm] _ _ _
the 24 [Cm]-hour [Fm] blues. _ _
_ [Bbm] _ _ _ [Fm] I can't lose them.
_ _ _ Every [Cm] day _ is the _ [Bbm] same, _ _ the [Fm] 24-hour blues. _
_ _ [Bbm] _ _ [Fm] I can't lose them.
_ [C] _ [Eb] _ _ [Fm] Every day, _ _ _ _ every morning, _ _ _ _ when I wake up, baby, _ _ _ _ oh, Lord.
