Let [D] me drop your land of faith and take back your can from home.
[G] I swear I'm going crazy sitting here all alone.
Since [A] you've come along [G] I've got a message [D] of blues.
[G] The wolf's been roasting till you drop, [D] rolling down my face.
[G] If you cry when you're alone, [A] you're surely no disgrace.
I [D] ain't slept for weeks and Sundays, can't eat a thing all day.
And [G] every day is just a Monday since you've been away.
Since [A] you've gone along [G] I've got a message of blues.

The [G] wolf's been roasting till you drop, [D] rolling down my face.
