The Blues Come Around

C
Once I was happy as I could be,
    F                  G7      C
But I let a gal make a fool of me,

And ever since she let me down,
                                G7 
The blues come around when the sun 
      C
goes down.


                   Chorus:
         C7          F
Oh, the blues come a-round,
                    C
Oh the blues come a-round,
           G7
Lawd, the blues come around,
Ev'ry evenin' when the sun goes 
 C
down.




Continues after the ad
As long as the sun is in the sky,
       F                          
These doggone blues never make me 
C
cry,

But ever since she left this town,
                               G7  
The blues come around when the sun 
     C
goes down.



              Repeat chorus:


I built my castles very high,
     F                         C
And then she went and said goodbye,

And ever since she tore 'em down,
                                G7 
The blues come around when the sun 
      C
goes down.


                 Repeat chorus:


Once she called me all her own,
    F                       C
But now she's gone and I'm alone,

And ever evenin' I'm sorrow bound,
'Cause the blues come around when 
     D7       C
the sun goes down.

                      Repeat chorus:
