F                    Dm7
It's four in the morning,
           Edim7         A7+5+9  b9   
There's not a soul around
 Dm7          D9  
This dirty hotel room
      G7[13]                           C7#9  F13
Has really got me down

Bbma7
A modern day minstrel,

        Bbm7             Eb9
They got my name in lights

   Am7
I wish these days of glamour

          D9                   D7b9 
Didn't have these lonely nights

     Gm7
I'm on the road to fortune

          Bbm7               Eb9                          F  Dm7 Gm7 C7b9
And I got the suitcase blues real bad

Fmaj7                  Dm7
I guess I'm makin' payments
Em7b5                            A7+5+9  b9   
For the dues that must be paid
   
   Dm7            D9
I cash another song
             
            G7                           C7#9  F13
Into this endless masquerade

Bbma7
halfway through the circuit

       Bbm7             Eb9
And headed for the coast

        Am7
Been gone so long I can't remember

D9                   D7b9 
What I miss the most, ah, but,

Gm7
Me and Johnny Walker,

            Bbm7               Eb7 orEb9
And the comfort that he brings,

Am7                                   
Waitin' on the telephone

        D9             D7b9
That never, ever rings

Gm7  
On the lonely road to fortune,

         Bbm7               Eb9
and I got the suitcase blues real bad

Dm7      G9 or G7 or G13  REPEAT
Dm7      G13
I got the blues
          Dm7               G13
And I got them really bad

Dm7            G13
The suitcase blues
            Dm7           G13
Are the worst I ever had

Em7        A13
all by my lonesome
            Em7		           A13 
And I'm halfway 'round the bend

[Eb9]    Am7          D7
I          don't mind drinkin' solo

         Gm7               D7b9#5
But I sure could use a friend
==============================
Gm7[9]
Me and Johnny Walker,

And the comfort that he brings,

Am7                                   
Waitin' on the telephone

        D9             D7b9
That never, ever rings


          Gm7  
On the lonely road to fortune,
