D                                               D7
One of these mornings I'm gonna leave this town
G                                          D
One of these mornings I'm gonna leave this town
             A7                                    D
Cause you're trifling woman shore keeps a good man down
D                                                  D7
She left me this morning, midnight was turning day
G                                           D
She left me this morning, midnight was turning day
         A7                                    D
I didn't have no blues till my good gal went away
D                                                        D7
I got the blues like midnight moon shining bright as day Lord Lord
G                                                  D
Got the blues like midnight moon shining bright as day
A7                                   D
I wish a tornado would blow my blues away
[Solo]
D                                                          D7
When a man is down and out, a woman don't want him 'round
G                                                   D
When a man is down and out, a woman don't want him 'round
A7                                                    D
But when an man's got money, he's the sweetest guy in town
D                                                     D7
A woman will follow you, right to the jail house door
G                                                D
A woman will follow you, right to the jail house door
A7                                                          D
Then she'll laugh and tell you, she can't fuss and fight no more
[Chorus]
D                                                        D7
I got the blues like midnight moon shining bright as day Lord Lord
G                                                  D
Got the blues like midnight moon shining bright as day
A7                                   D
I wish a tornado would blow my blues away
