Tell you about that blues?
Them was the blues that [A#] I had so bad
from my good gal quitting.
I got to sit down and study,
and I couldn't stay there long.
That's why I hauled it to town
and told them I wasn't gonna be alone.
Tell them where my baby was there,
_ [G#m] so I could feel at home once [A#m] more again.
_ [A] _ _ _ _
You know how I used to always play [F#] that stuff,
you know, [Am] and shut them old juke houses down, man,
[Em] with them old [F] seabirds?
[F#] We'd shut them things plumb [D] down.
[A] _ _
[F#m] _ [F] _ [E] [G#] The man said, I watched the eye of him,
[E] said, y'all ain't gonna let me make no money off them _ seabirds.
Them guys, they'd often go home if they wouldn't let us [A] play. _
