E   E7 E6  E7
              Mmmmm mmmmm
 
 
[Verse]

E7
I's up this mornin', ah, 

Blues walkin' like a man
E7
I's up this mornin', ah, 

Blues walkin' like a man
E7
Worried blues, 

Give me your right hand
 
 
[Verse]

E7
And the blues fell mama's child, 

Tore me all upside down
E7
Blues fell mama's child, 

And it tore me all upside down
E7
Travel on, poor Bob, 

Just can't turn you 'round
 
 
[Verse]

E7
The blues, is a low-down shakin' chill
E7
(Yes, preach 'em now)
E7
Mmmmm mmmmm
E7
Is a low-down shakin' chill
E7
You ain't never had 

'em I, hope you never will
 
 
[Verse]

E7
Well, the blues , is a achin' 

Old heart disease
E7
(Do it now, you gon' do it? 

Tell me all about it)

The blues, is a low-down 

Achin' heart disease
E7
Like consumption, 

Killing me by degrees
 
 
[Verse]

E7
I can study rain, oh oh drive, 

Oh oh drive my blues
E7
I been studyin' the rain and, 

I'm 'on drive my blues away
E7
Goin' to the 'stil'ry, 

Stay out there all day
