Wronged Man Blues-
KEY OF G
I'm so troubled, so much pain C/C
Will I ever see my baby again C/C
She said she loved me that's a fact F/F
Now she's gone don't think she's coming back F/C
She took the last train out of town C/C
I cry the innocent tears of a man who's been wronged C/ Am F
That's why that's why that's why C F/C F/C F/
I'm singing these wronged man blues 2/4 G Eb/C/C/C/C
See I was out the other night
My gal's best friend got a little tight
She tried to take me to her bed
I said no no no soon im gonna wed
That girl hurt me cause I turned her down
She told my woman I'd been sleepin round
So I cry So I cry So I cry because
I'm singing these lonesome blues
If I drank whiskey, I'd get drunk F/F
If I smoked reefer, I'd get skunked C/C
If I had religion I'd praise the lord F/F
If I had a shotgun I'd be no more D/G
She took the last train out of town
I cry the innocent tears of a man who's been wronged
That's why that's why that's why
I'm singing these wronged man blues
Solo
If I drank whiskey, I'd get drunk
If I smoked reefer, I'd get skunked
If I had religion I'd praise the lord
If I had a shotgun I'd be no more
But I'd come running if you called
Cause without you I got nothing at all
I would never drive you away
Cause life without you is worse every day
So baby please please come back
Stop that train from running down the track
That's why that's why that's why
I'm singing these wronged man blues
So I cry so I cry so I cry because
I'm singing these wronged man blues
That's why that's why that's why
I'm singing these wronged man blues
