E                        A                            E     E7
It was a cold black night and the rain was falling down
A                                            E     E7  
Cold black night and the rain was fallin' down
B                              A                               E A E B
I went out lookin' for my girl, I knew she wasn't nowhere around

[Verse 2]
E                             A                           E     E7      
She left me early that morning, with a suitcase in her hand
A                                                              E     E7
She left me early that morning, yes, with a suitcase in her hand
B                                       A                                  E A E B
And she took off on a train this mornin' and she was meetin' some other man, yes

[Verse 3]
E                             A                                        E     E7         
She used to treat me real good and I wonder why I didn't treat her right
A                                                     E     E7
Yes, ah, you know I wonder why I didn't treat her right
B                   A                                         E A E B      E
And now all I can do is walk those streets both day and night, yes, oh yes
