| A Mess of Blues |
| C | C | |
| I just | got your letter baby; a-too | bad you can't come home |
| F7 | |
| I | swear I'm goin' crazy sittin' here all alone |
| G7 | F7 | C | |
| Since your | gone, I | got a mess of | blues. |
| C | C | |
| I ain't | slept a week since Sunday, I can't | eat a thing all day |
| F7 | |
| Every | day is just blue Monday, since you've been away |
| G7 | F7 | C | C7 | |
| Since your | gone I | got a mess of | blues. |
| F7 | C | B7 | C7 | |
| Whoops there goes a teardrop | rollin' down | my | face |
| F7 | G7 | |
| If you cry when you're in love, it | sure ain't no disgrace |
| C | |
| I gotta | get myself together before I lose my mind |
| F7 | |
| I'm gonna | catch the next train goin' and leave my blues behind. |
| G7 | F7 | C | |
| Since your | gone, I | got a mess of | blues. |
