TEXT:
C G7
I got a feelin' called the blues, since my mama said goodbye
G7 C C7
Lord I don't know what I'll do, all I do is sit and sigh, oh Lord
C7 F[E+1 F7[E7+1
That last long day we spent alone
C A7
I'm longin for her to come home
A7 D7[C7+2
She'd thrill me, fill me, with her kind of lovin'
G[E+3
Lord I never will forget
C
The way she called me sweet daddy
G7
'Twas such a beautiful dream
G7
I hate to think it's all over
E7
I've lost my heart it seems
F[E+1 F7[E7+1
I've grown so used to her somehow
C A7 D7[C7+2 G[E+3
I'm nobody's sugar papa now, it's awful when you're lonesome
C
You got them lovesick blues.
E7 a E7
Well, I'm in love, I'm in love with a beautiful gal
a
That's what's the matter with me
E7 a
I'm in love, I'm in love with a beautiful gal
D7[C7+2 G[E+3
But she don't care about me
G7
To make her love me I tried
C
Lord, I was sad and I cried
E7 a
But she just refused
D7[C7+2
But now my mama's gone away,
G[E+3
I've got them lovesick blues
Note: Oddly enough, this was written in 1922, and was a sleeper
for twenty-seven years, until Hank Williams sang it on the
Grand Old Opry. RG
