When my [D] baby moved out and the blues moved in
|
There wasn't nothin' I could do
|
But mosey around with my head in my hands
|
Lord [A7] what am I comin' [D] to
|
I just keep [A7] Moanin' [P]
|
[NC] Moa-oanin' the blues. [D] ... [D7]
|
|
I [*G7] wrote a nice, long [D] letter
|
Sayin' [*G7] mama please come [D] home
|
Your [E7] dad-ad-dy is lon-one-some
|
And [A7] all I [Am] do is [A7] moan ...
|
I been [D] lovin' that gal for so doggone long
|
I can't afford to lose her now
|
I thought I was right but I must of been wrong
|
'Cause my [A7] head is startin' to bow [D]
|
And now I'm [A7] Moanin' [P]
|
[NC] Moa-oanin' The Blues. [D]
|
|
If you want a good gal to stay around
|
You gotta treat her nice and kind
|
If you do her wrong she'll leave this tonw
|
And you'll almost lose your mlind
|
Then you'll moanin'; Moa-oanin' The Blues.
|
|
Aw! baby, baby, baby
|
Honey baby, please come home
|
Your dad-ad-dy is lon-one-some and all I do is moan
|
I promise you baby that I'll be good
|
And I'll never be bad no more
|
I'm sittin' here waitin' for you right now
|
To walk through that front door
|
Then I'll stop moanin'; Moa-oanin' The Blues.
