G           C
I got those blues where my baby 
        F                  C
Left me down by the Frisco Bay, yea-yea
   F                              C
An ocean liner came and took her away, yea-yea
  F                        
I didn't mean to treat her bad,
             C                 A
she was the best friend I ever had,
    D/F#         
She said goodbye, she made me cry,
    G
She made me wanna lay down my head and die...I 

Refrain:
C                        F                 C
Ain't got a nickel and I ain't got a lousy dime
F                                             E
She don't come back I think I'm gonna lose my mind
F                         D/F#          C                    A
If she ever comes back to stay, 'sgonna be another brand new day
F                    G                    C           A
Walkin' with my baby by the San Francisco Bay hey hey hey,

 G           C        F     C
Well I'm sittin' down on my back porch, 
C                  F      C
I don't know which way to go
F                                            E
The girl that I was so crazy about she don't love me anymore
F                       D/F#           C                 A
Think I'm gonna catch a freight train, cause I'm feelin' blue
F                                     G
Gonna ride it to the end of the line, thinkin' only of you!
