Well, [Ab] did you [D] ever wake up in the morning,
[Db] Just [B] about to pick up [A] things,

[Abm] Where your [C] baby used to lay,
No, [Db] hey now,
Hey [F] now, hey now, hey [Ab] now, hey now,
[B] [Fm] Well, you know [Bbm] to make it easy,
So [A] bad, that you lay right [Ab] down and die,
[Db] [D] [Abm]
[B] [Eb] [Ebm] Then you [N] put on your [D] crown,
[Db] Like you [B] never cried before,
[Db] [Ebm] You'll [N] even cry so [Eb] loud,
You'll get the blues to your neighbor next [E] door,
And you'll say, [Bbm] hey now, hey now,

[Ebm] [A] Then [Ebm] you cry, [B] Lord, [D] Lord,
[Db]
Won't you hear my [Em] plea,
[Ebm] I know you can't [Em] help but feel like somebody,
[Ebm] So won't you [Ab] please sit a little bit down with me,
