C                              F
I'm just callin' my folks from Mississippi
C                                   G7
Just to let 'em know that I'm still fine
    C                         F
And mom and dad while we were talkin'
       C                   G7                C
I just thought I'd let you know what's on my mind

[Verse 2]
                               F
My financial problems are still with me
        C                          G7
And the way that I live is nothing new
   C                            F
So mom and dad please don't you worry
          C                G7               C
It's just one of those old things we all go through

[Chorus]
    F             C
And yes I've been lonely
                        G7
Oh and yes I've feelin' blue
    F                 C          F
And yes I've lost the one that I loved
              C                G7               C
But it's just one of those old things we all go through

[Verse 3] 
                                     F
Just to hear your voice makes me feel better
      C                          G7
And I know you'll remember me in prayer
C                          F
Heaven knows I'm trying to forget her
     C            G7                 C
It's just another cross I'll have to bear

[Chorus]
F             C
And yes I've been lonely
                        G7
Oh and yes I've feelin' blue
    F                 C          F
And yes I've lost the one that I loved
              C                G7               C
But it's just one of those old things we all go through
F         C                G7               C
It's just one of those old things we all go through
