               Gm
Well there are blues
That you get from loneliness
              Cm
And there are blues
That you get from pain

              D
And there are blues
             D7
When you are lonely
    Gm
For your one and only
    A7                     D     D7
And blues you can never ex plain

              Gm
And there are blues
That you get from cryin'
        Cm                 D
But the meanest blues that be

        G7
Are the kind that
I've got on my mind
    C
The  blues that are the very meanest kind
        F                F7              Bb D7
Are the blues my naughty sweety gives to me

    Gm
Now blues you get from women
when you see 'em goin' swimmin'
And you haven't got a bathin' suit yourself

          Cm
There are blues that give a squiggle
when you've had a lot of liquor
Then somebody goes and lays it on the shelf
                                             
          D                                 D7
There are blues you get from sittin' on the dock
       Gm
Just a wonderin' if the boats gonna rock
         A7
There're blues you get from sittin'
in a taxicab a frettin'
      D                                D7
Every time you hear the meter jump the clock

              Gm
And there are blues you get from tryin'
to keep your uncle Bill from dyin'
And afterwards forgets you in his will

          Cm
There are blues you get from kissin'
when you're walkin' with your misses'
                                D7
And some boss lady hollers, "Hi Bill"
                                                                         
                G7
Hey they're the kind that make you wanna' shake and shiver
    C                                C7
The kind that make you wanna' end it all in the river
       F                F7               Bb D7
Ah the blues my naughty sweetie gives to me
                               
             Gm
Now there areblues you get from women
when you see 'em goin' swimmin'
And you haven't got a bathin' suit yourself

          Cm
There are blues that give a squiggle
when you've had a lot of liquor
Then somebody goes and lays it on the shelf
                                             
          D                                 D7
There are blues you get from sittin' on the dock
       Gm
Just a wonderin' if the boats gonna rock
         A7
There're blues you get from sittin'
in a taxicab a frettin'
      D                                D7
Every time you hear the meter jump the clock

              Gm
And there are blues you get from tryin'
to keep your uncle Bill from dyin'
And afterwards forgets you in his will

          Cm
There are blues you get from kissin'
when you're walkin' with your Misses'
And some boss lady shouts, "Hi Bill.”

            G7
They're the kind that make you wanna' shake and shiver
    C                                C7
The kind that make you wanna' end it all in the river
       F                F7               Bb G7
Ah the blues my naughty sweetie gives to me

End:

    C                F       F7       Bb F7Bb
The blues my naughty sweetie gives to me.
