You know life would be easy
if people would leave me alone
stop stepping on my fingers
when I've been working to the bone
Em
D                       Em           
maybe think I could get back with you
                   
Goddamn I hate the blues

Some tried to put 'm in a bottle
some put 'm in their shoes
but either way they gonna kill you
slowly eat away your heart
If I could only stop the thought of you
Goddamn I hate the blues

I never learnt to listen
to the promises I made
I never thought you'd stay away
leaving me to take the blame
I never thougth I'd follow through
Goddamn I hate the blues
                          
I really, really hate the blues


I'm not sure if the lyrics are correct (I know they are on the record sleeve,
but I don't have the record sleeve) since Freds articulation is not that good,
and so is my english. Corrections appreciated.
