E
It’s too hot to sleep so I have to walk
E
Depression’s got me down, so I can’t talk
E
Lost my family, my home too
E
So many lost, so I’m singin’ the blues
[Chorus]
A E
I’m gonna walk my blues, walk ‘em all night long I say
B A E
Oh, in the lonely hours, I’m gonna walk my blues away
{Verse 2]
E
From city to city, town to town
E
The boss-man tells me “no work to be found”
E
From the alleys down south, they say,
E
“No work, no work” day after day
{Chorus]
A E
I’m gonna walk my blues, walk ‘em all night long I say
B A E B
Oh, in the lonely hours, I’m gonna walk my blues away
[Bridge]
A E
Can’t stop, don’t stop, the man says “move”
A E
Don’t jump that freight or go stand in queue
A E
Since Black Tuesday came, things ain’t right
B7 A E
I’m gonna walk my blues all through the night
[Solo]
E7 A E B A E
[Verse 3]
E
The government man says, “it’s time you’re gone,”
E
“There’s nothing for you here, so move along”
E
Well lucky for me I’ve got a woman in tow
E
I know I’ll get through with some help above
[Chorus]
A E
I’m gonna walk my blues, walk ‘em all night long I say
B A E
Oh, in the lonely hours, I’m gonna walk my blues away
[Outro]
B A E
Oh, in the lonely hours, I’m gonna walk my blues away
B A E G5
Oh, in the lonely hours, I’m gonna walk my blues away
