Intro: E D9 E D9 

E                 D9                E           D9 
Some folks always seem to find the good things 
E               Bm5-/7             E7 
Other folks get mixed up with the bad 
      A             Edim           E           C#m7 
Don't ask me what I know about the good things  
     A7M     F#m   B7   E7 
The blues is all I ever had 
    E                   D9                E      D9 
To some, the earth's a world of friendly faces 
E              Bm5-/7             E7 
For those lucky few, I'm awful glad 
A                   Edim            E       C#m7 
My world's been a string of second places  
     A7M     F#m   B7   E7 
The blues is all I ever had 
Am7              Cdim                 G    Em7 
When I first met him, I thought that maybe 
Am7                  Cdim           G 
He could change this lonely life I led 
C                   Cm     Cm5-/7       C     Am 
When he smiled and said, "I love you, baby" 
     A7M       F#m         B7      E7 
Silly girl, I b'lieved each word he said 
  E                 D9              E         D9 
Guess it's time for me to say "good bye" now  
E              Bm5-/7             E7 
Didn't mean to leave you feelin' sad 
A                    Edim               E       C#m7 
Since he's gone, what is there left to try now 
    A7M      F#m   B7 C   E7 
The blues is all I ever had
