  			E    A 
 
A 
All alone here I stand 
         E 
Heart in hell chin in hand 
                                A 
Thinking what will I do without you 
 
Did I know  did I see 
      E 
Did I drive her away from me 
                         A 
Did I cause her to be so untrue 
            E 
The way she done me it ain't fair 
          D             A     
Think I'm losing all my hair 
         E             D           E 
Paid the price for the life that I choose 
                              A           E     A 
It's a red letter day for the blues 
A 
You were young you were wild 
         E  
You were nothing but a child 
                                A 
You were sweet as a honeysuckle tree 
 
Before I know  before I saw 
           E 
You took a young man and turned him old 
                                  A 
And you drove on down the road of misery 
            E 
The way she done me it ain't fair 
          D             A     
Think I'm losing all my hair 
         E             D           E 
Paid the price for the life that I choose 
                              A           E     A 
It's a red letter day for the blues 
 
SOLO 
            E 
The way she done me it ain't fair 
          D             A     
Think I'm losing all my hair 
         E             D           E 
Paid the price for the life that I choose 
                              A            
It's a red letter day for the blues 
       E 
It's a red letter day 
 
It's a red letter day 
                              A     E   A 
It's a red letter day for the blues
