Am Em
You know my life would be easy
Am Em
If people would leave me alone
Am Em
Stop steppin' on my fingers
Am Em
That I've been workin' to the bone
D Em
Maybe then I could get back with you
Am Em
God damn I hate the blues
Am Em
Am Em
I've tried to put 'em in a bottle
Am Em
Some people pu 'em in their arm
Am Em
Either way they're gonna kill you
Am Em
Slowly eat away your heart
D Em
If only I could stop the thought of you
Am Em
God damn I hate the blues

Am Em
I never learned to listen
Am Em
To the promises I'd made
Am Em
I never thought you'd stay away
Am Em
Leaving me to take the blame
D Em
I never thought you'de follow through
Am Em
God damn I hate the blues
