C                  G7                C
Just last night my love said she was leaving

                      G7              C   C7
I sat right there and cried until the dawn

     F                               C
Then booze was added to the pain and heartbreak

                        G7                C
The combination equaled trouble from then on

 
           F             C
Blues plus booze means I lose

      F                               C
Not a right combination for anyone to choose

  F                                           C
Nobody knows the feeling till he's been in my shoes

           F             C
Blues plus booze means I lose 

 
                 G7                      C
Tonight I'm fast forgetting how she left me

                       G7               C     C7
But tomorrow pain will come on twice as strong

  F                               C
I order stronger booze and louder music

                   G7                  C
Like I'm happy for tonight but not for long

 
           F             C
Blues plus booze means I lose

      F                               C
Not a right combination for anyone to choose

  F                                           C
Nobody knows the feeling till he's been in my shoes

           F             C
Blues plus booze means I lose
