  			Well, I (D) never felt more like (G7) singin' the blues  
'Cause (D) I never thought that (A7) I'd ever lose  
Your (G7) love dear, (A7) why'd you do me this (D) way  
Well, I never felt more like (G7) cryin' all night  
'Cause (D) everything's wrong, there ain't (A7) nothin' right  
With(G7)out you, (A7) you got me singin' the (D) blues.  
 
Now the (G7) moon and stars no (D) longer shine  
The (G7) dream is gone I though(D)t was mine  
There's (G7) nothin' left for (D) me to do  
But cry-y-y over (A7) you  
 
Well, I (D) never felt more like (G7) runnin' away  
But (D) how can I go when (A7) I couldn't stay  
With(G7)out you, (A7) you got me singin' the (D) blues.

Now the (G7) moon and stars no (D) longer shine  
The (G7) dream is gone I though(D)t was mine  
There's (G7) nothin' left for (D) me to do  
But cry-y-y over (A7) you  
  
Well, I (D) never felt more like (G7) runnin' away  
But (D) how can I go when (A7) I couldn't stay  
With(G7)out you, (A7) you got me singin' the (D) blues  (A7) (D)
