Suitcase Blues –Triumph

                    
It's four in the morning,
           Edim7         +5+9     
There's not a soul around
             
This dirty hotel room
      [13]                           C7#9  
Has really got me down

Bbma7
A modern day minstrel,

                     
They got my name in lights

   
I wish these days of glamour

                             D7b9 
Didn't have these lonely nights

     
I'm on the road to fortune

                                                       C7b9
And I got the suitcase blues real bad

                  
I guess I'm makin' payments
Em7b5                            +5+9     
For the dues that must be paid
   
               
I cash another song
             
                                       C7#9  
Into this endless masquerade

Bbma7
halfway through the circuit

                    
And headed for the coast

        
Been gone so long I can't remember

                   D7b9 
What I miss the most, ah, but,


Me and Johnny Walker,

                            orEb9
And the comfort that he brings,

                                   
Waitin' on the telephone

                     D7b9
That never, ever rings

  
On the lonely road to fortune,

                        
and I got the suitcase blues real bad

       or  or   REPEAT
      
I got the blues
                         
And I got them really bad

            
The suitcase blues
                       
Are the worst I ever had

        
all by my lonesome
            		            
And I'm halfway 'round the bend

[]              
I          don't mind drinkin' solo

                        D7b9#5
But I sure could use a friend

Me and Johnny Walker,

On the lonely road to fortune,

                           A7#5        
and I got the suitcase blues real…   bad

I think this is pretty close – some jazz head please figure out the tag at the end!
