San Francisco Bay Blues
by Jesse FULLER


C                                F                        C  C7
I got the Blues for my baby down beside the San Francisco bay,
   F                            C  C7
An ocean-liner took her so far away.
F                            G
I didn't mean it treat me so bad,
            C                     Am
She was the best girl I ever ever had.
F                                          G7
She said goodbye, she like to make me cry, gonna lay down my

head and die.

C                        F                 C   C7
I ain't got a nickel and ain't got a lousy time.
    F                                          Em7 Em
She don't come back I thing I'm gonna loose my mind,
F                     G7         C                          Am
She ever come back to stay, it's gonna be another brand new day.
F                         G                        C  G
Walking with my baby down beside the San Francisco bay.


C                F     C                          F      C C7
I'm sittin' here by my back door, I wounder which way to go.
F                                             C   C7
Woman I'm so crazy about you don't love me anymore,
F                    G7             C                 Am
Think I'll take me a freight train, cause I'm feelin' blues.
F                                       G7
Ride all the way to the end of the line thinking only at you.
C         F          C                    F     C   C7
Meanwhile in a other city, just about the goin' same.
F                                      G7
Thought I heard my sweet baby, and the way she used to call my

name.
F                        G7               C
If she ever come back to stay, it's gonna be another brand new
Am
day.
F                         G                        C  Am
Walking with my baby down beside the San Francisco bay.
F                         G                        C  Am
Walking with my baby down beside the San Francisco bay......
