Tuning: Standard - CAPO V

C5                            G5
Darling I been down and out ever since you left town
A5                             F5            G5
Well I ain't been the same, no matter how I try
C5                                     G5
Sometimes we don't get to choose, the ones who wear the walking shoes
A5                                       F5               G5
I'm just a poor boy with the blues, no that ain't nothing new


Chorus:
C5                                G5
I'm gonna fill this whiskey cup, I'm gonna pick me some banjo up
A5                                     F5             G5
I'm gonna play with the Tragedies, singing good time harmonies
C5                                 G5
B. Wright don't you let me down, play that one called Sad Clown,
A5                                    F5                 G5
You know that one's about me, I been thinking about leaving town


Interlude:
C5 G5 A5 F5 G5

C5                                 G5
Well sunshine she came out today, it don't matter anyways
A5                                        F5             G5
'Cause I still see the water, and it's dripping down my door
C5                                  G5
I used to hear the children play, I used to hear the birds sing
A5                                     F5            G5
One day they just stopped, and I don't hear them anymore

Repeat Chorus!

C5 G5 A5 F5 G5

C5                                           G5
Oh and I got caught in this whistling wind, doing my best to regret these sins
A5                                 F5               G5
Lord would you forgive me if you knew I'm gonna do it again?
C5                                             G5
And it's not that I'm not sorry, Lord, no it's just that I'm not strong
A5                                      F5            G5
'Cause when that woman looks at me I can't remember right from wrong

Repeat Chorus, overlap lyrics and get loud!
