[Intro]
E    A
[Verse]
AAll alone here I stand
Heart in Ehell chin in hand
Thinking what will I do without Ayou
Did I know  did I see
Did I Edrive her away from me
Did I cause her to be so Auntrue
The way she Edone me it ain't fair
Think I'm Dlosing all my Ahair
Paid the Eprice for the Dlife that I Echoose
It's a red letter day for the AbluesE  A  
AYou were young you were wild
You were Enothing but a child
You were sweet as a honeysuckle Atree
Before I know  before I saw
You took a Eyoung man and turned him old
And you drove on down the road of Amisery
The way she Edone me it ain't fair
Think I'm Dlosing all my Ahair
Paid the Eprice for the Dlife that I Echoose
It's a red letter day for the AbluesE  A  
The way she Edone me it ain't fair
Think I'm Dlosing all my Ahair
Paid the Eprice for the Dlife that I Echoose
It's a red letter day for the Ablues
It's a Ered letter day
It's a red letter day
It's a red letter day for the Ablues E  A

[Verse]

All alone here I stand

Heart in hell chin in hand

Thinking what will I do without you

Did I know did I see

Did I drive her away from me

Did I cause her to be so untrue

The way she done me it ain't fair

D A

Think I'm losing all my hair

E D E

Paid the price for the life that I choose

A E A

It's a red letter day for the blues

You were young you were wild

You were nothing but a child

You were sweet as a honeysuckle tree

Before I know before I saw

You took a young man and turned him old

And you drove on down the road of misery

The way she done me it ain't fair

D A

Think I'm losing all my hair

E D E

Paid the price for the life that I choose

A E A

It's a red letter day for the blues

The way she done me it ain't fair

Think I'm losing all my hair

E D E

Paid the price for the life that I choose

It's a red letter day for the blues

It's a red letter day

A E A

It's a red letter day for the blues
