            A5       C?7    G5       F#5  
I've got a lovesick tale to tell to you
B5     E5           A5          E5
Though it ain't no fail of mine
            A5       C?7    
It's about a gal named sue
       G5       F#5  
And a boy named lou
B5                        E5
They were fightin' all the time
    C#5          F#5
Sue came home one afternoon
    B5              E5
And found an empty dining room


     A5    C?7
Without a word
       G5           F#5  
A turtledove had flown 
   B5        E5  
Sue began to moan
     A5            A5
"My sweetie went away
       D5      A5
But he didn't say where
       D5      A5
He didn't say when
        A5       D5
He didn't say why
      D5            E5 *
Without biddin' me goodbye
     D5            E5 * A5   C5    E5 E5 *
Oh I'm blue as I can be


     A5            A5
I know he loves another one 
       D5      A5
But he didn't say who
       D5      A5
He didn't say when
        A5       D5
He didn't say what
      D5            E5 *
His momma has got
     D5            E5 *     A5   D5  A5
That took my sweetie from me


          C#5
I'm like a little lost sheep

And I can't sleep
              F#5
But I keep tryin' to forget 
 E5           F5       F#5      B5        E5 E5 
My travelin' poppa, he left his momma all alone
E5 E5 *
I groan

  A5            A5
"My sweetie went away
       D5      A5
But he didn't say where
       D5      A5
He didn't say when
        A5       D5
He didn't say why
      D5            E5 *
I know I'll die
     D5            E5 *  A5 A5 * D5 D5 A5  G5 Ab5 A5
Why don't he hurry on home?
