Elvis Presley, A Mess Of The Blues (1960)
Key: :[C] (w: Doc Pomus, Mort Shuman)
INTRO: [C7]
VERSE 1:
I just
[C7] got your letter baby, too bad you can't come home
I
[F7] swear I'm goin' crazy, sittin' here all alone
Since your
[G7] gone, I
[F7] got a mess o' the
[C7] blues
VERSE 2:
I ain't
[C7] slept a week since Sunday, I can't eat a thing all day
Every-
[F7]-day is just blue Monday, since you've been away
Since your
[G7] gone, I
[F7] got a mess o' the
[C7] blues
CHORUS:
[F7] Whoops there goes a teardrop,
[C7] rollin' down my face
[F7] If you cry when you're in love
It
[G7 open] sure ain't no dis-
[G7]-grace
VERSE 3:
I gotta
[C7] get myself together, before I lose my mind
I'm gonna
[F7] catch the next train goin', and leave my blues behind
Since your
[G7] gone, I
[F7] got a mess o' the
[C7] blues
REPEAT CHORUS:
REPEAT VERSE 3:
OUTRO:
Since your
[G7] gone, I
[F7] got a mess o' the
[C7] blues
Since your
[G7] gone, I
[F7] got a mess o' the
[C7] blues
