verse 1 

G 
I got a feelin' called the blues oh Lord 
         G7            D 
Since my baby said goodbye 

Lord I don't know what I'll do 
                    G 
All I do is sit and cry..... 

Pre-Chorus   


oh Lord 
               C                C7 
That last long day she said goodbye 
     G                      E 
Well Lord I thought I would die 
       A 
She'll do me she'll do you 

She's got that kind of lovin' 
D                                 D7            G     G7 
Lord I love to hear her when she calls me sweet daddy.... 
 

                 D 
Such a beautiful dream 
          
I got to thinkin' all over 
          D7       B 
I lost my heart it seems 
              C              C7 
I've grown so use to you somehow 
              G              E     E7 
Well Lord I'm nobody's sugar daddy now 
    A                 D 
And Lord I'm lonesome 
                   G     C G 
I got the lovesick blues 

Bridge 

            B                       Em 
Well I'm in love I'm in love with a beautiful gal 
B                             Em 
That's what's the matter with me 
            B                       Em 
Well I'm in love I'm in love with a beautiful gal

But she don't care about me 

verse 2 

                          D7 
Lord I tried and tried to keep her satisfied 
    G 
But she just wouldn't stay 
    A 
And now that she is leavin' 
                  D   D7 
This is all I can say
