Standard (EADGBE)

You know life would be easy

if people would leave me alone

stop stepping on my fingers

when I've been working to the bone

maybe think I could get back with you

<start pattern="" at="" am="" chord="">

Goddamn I hate the blues

Some tried to put 'm in a bottle

some put 'm in their shoes

but either way they gonna kill you

slowly eat away your heart

If I could only stop the thought of you

Goddamn I hate the blues

I never learnt to listen

to the promises I made

I never thought you'd stay away

leaving me to take the blame

I never thougth I'd follow through

Goddamn I hate the blues

<stop on="" em="">

I really, really hate the blues

I'm not sure if the lyrics are correct (I know they are on the record sleeve,

but I don't have the record sleeve) since Freds articulation is not that good,

and so is my english. Corrections appreciated.
