[G]Lord I went to the doctor he took one look
He said the [C]trouble with you ain't [G]in my book
I'll [C]tell you what it is but it [G]ain't good news
You've got an awful bad case of them [D7]low down [G]blues
I've got the [C]mean old miseries [G]in my soul
I [C]went to the river but the [G]waters too cold
I've [C]walked the floor till I've worn [G]out my shoes
Lord they're killing me I mean them [D7]low down [G]blues
Lord I never knew a man could feel this bad
I [C]never knew living could [G]be so sad
[C]All I do is [G]set and cry
Lord I'd have to get better be[D7]fore I could [G]die
I've got the [C]mean old miseries [G]in my soul
I [C]went to the river but the [G]waters too cold
I've [C]walked the floor till I've worn [G]out my shoes
Lord they're killing me I mean them [D7]low down [G]blues
Lord I went to the doctor he took one look
He said the trouble with you ain't in my book
I'll tell you what it is but it ain't good news
You've got an awful bad case of them low down blues
I've got the mean old miseries in my soul
I went to the river but the waters too cold
I've walked the floor till I've worn out my shoes
Lord they're killing me I mean them low down blues
Lord I never knew a man could feel this bad
I never knew living could be so sad
All I do is set and cry
Lord I'd have to get better before I could die
I've got the mean old miseries in my soul
I went to the river but the waters too cold
I've walked the floor till I've worn out my shoes
Lord they're killing me I mean them low down blues
