C                  G7                C 
Just last night my love said she was leaving 

                      G7              C   C7 
I sat right there and cried until the dawn 

     F                               C 
Then booze was added to the pain and heartbreak 

                        G7                C 
The combination equaled trouble from then on 

  
           F             C 
Blues plus booze means I lose 

      F                               C 
Not a right combination for anyone to choose 

  F                                           C 
Nobody knows the feeling till he's been in my shoes 

           F             C 
Blues plus booze means I lose  

  
                 G7                      C 
Tonight I'm fast forgetting how she left me 

                       G7               C     C7 
But tomorrow pain will come on twice as strong 

  F                               C 
I order stronger booze and louder music 

                   G7                  C 
Like I'm happy for tonight but not for long 

  
           F             C 
Blues plus booze means I lose 

      F                               C 
Not a right combination for anyone to choose 

  F                                           C 
Nobody knows the feeling till he's been in my shoes 

           F             C 
Blues plus booze means I lose
