C                                 G
Troubles up and down the road and trials all the way around
  C                                   G
I never knew what trouble was till my honey threw me down
     C                                 G
With nothing but old ragged clothes my heart strings broken to shreds
C                           G
Blues creeping over my body Queer notions flying in my head

C G

    C                             G
The easiest thing I ever done was loving and drinking wine
    C                             G
The hardest thing I ever done was paying off a judge's fine
       C                                    G
No, I've never worked for pleasure peace on earth I cannot find
    C                            G
The only thing I surely own is a worried and troubled mind

   Bb                             A
If men and wine don't kill me the one more plan to find

     C
I?ll soak up all the old rub-alcohol
    G
and ease all trouble off my mind
     D                                         C
I?ll ease all trouble off my mind, my mind, my mind.
