[Gm] Without a [Cm] word of warning, [Gm] the blues [Cm] walked in this morning
[D] And circled around [A] my lonely room
I didn't know why I [E] had that sad and lonely [C] feeling
Till my baby called [G] and said we're through
[C] [D] [Bbm]
[Am] Yesterday I sang a love [E] song, but today [G] I sing the [C] blues
[G] I
[D] know the [Cm] explanation, [Gm] but that's no [G] consolation
[F] No matter how you love you can lose
[B] And since I've lost [C] I'd rather [Am] walk around in [C] worry
I guess I've walked the [G] darkest [C] avenue
[D]
[Bbm] [C] Yesterday I sang a love song, [D] but today [G] I [C] sing the blues
[G]
[D] Now, it [G] strikes me kind of funny, how life can be this way
We were lovers last night, honey, [C] but not in love today
[Eb] Now, it strikes me kind of funny, [G] how fate [Ab] can be unfair
It seems [E] that I'm the one to lose in every [G] love affair
[C] Yes, it must be little foolish, [E]
that I should be the [Bm] one to always [D] lose
[Bm]
