Weary Blues

[Verse 1]
          C                    
I got the weary blues, I got no 
             C7
heart to cry
          F                    
I got the weary blues, I got no 
          C
heart to cry
       G7                       
If the blues don't kill me, Lord 
            C
I'll never die

[Verse 2]
      C                            
Had a dream last night when I 
                C7
rolled back in my bed
      F                            
Had a dream last night when I 
             C
rolled back in my bed  What you 
dream boy
       G7                          
Lord I dreamed last night that the 
                  C
woman I loved was dead

[Verse 3]
  C                                
I went to the graveyard and looked 
                C7
down in her face

I went to the graveyard and looked 
            C
down in her face
           G7                      
I said the Lord knows I love you 
                         C
but I sure can't take your place

[Verse 4]
          C                        
I got the blues so bad that I can't
               C7
 sleep nor eat
          F

           C

     G7                            
Just walk around like a police man 
       C
on his beat

[Verse 5]
     C                          
Now when I'm gone don't you hand 
                 C7
crape on my door
     F                           
Lord when I'm gone don't you hand 
             C
crape on my door
       G7                          
'Cos I won't be there, t' just 
             C

want no cryin' neither)
