                               E7          A 
Well, I guess there's not much I can do or say 
                  E7           A 
Saw my baby with another guy today 
        D                                A 
Well, I love her and I tried to tell her so 
                       E7              A 
It's hello, blues, and down the road I go 
 
 
Verse 2: 
 
Well, I've never seen that guy before today 
He held my baby in the closest way 
And the way she snuggled close to him, I know 
It's hello, blues, and down the road I go 
 
 
Bridge: 
 
         F#m 
Well, it seemed our thoughts grew much alike 
    A 
Our likes grew much the same 
   F#m 
We even had our future planned 
     E 
Till into town he came

(instrumental, in pattern of verse) 
 
(repeat bridge and verse 2)
