intro
               
               
               

verse 1:

Low down, low down dirty shame
                        
Low down, low down dirty shame
         
I've had nothing but the blues
                    
  Since I heard your name

verse 2:

No more, no more blues today
                        
No more, no more blues today
          
I've been fond of you baby
                          
But you got me crying everyday

guitar solo

verse 3:
          
I've been waiting, waiting so long for you
                            
Waiting, waiting so long for you
       
It was good news sometimes
                          
And then sometimes, it was bad news

verse 4: repeat verse 1

guitar solo

verse 5
          
I've been crying, crying all night long
                        
Crying, crying all night long
      
I had nothing but the blues
                 
  Since you came along

verse 6: repeat verse 1 & fade
