[Verse 1]
[D]I g[G]ot [D]the blues, y 'all.
[G]I got the 199[D]0 blues.
When I woke up this morning,
[G]I was crying out the blues, y[D][G][D]
I woke [G]up early this mornin'
I was cryin' out [D]the blues, y [G]'all[D]
[G]You see, I [A]had to tell somebody else
[G]Pray someone would just [D]call[Dm][G][D]
[A]It wouldn't bre[D]ak me so damn bad now,
[G]if I only knew what was going [D]on[G][D]
You see I'm [G]having so much
trouble here baby,
pray tell me what have I done [D]wrong[G]
[D]I g[G]ot h[A]oles all in my shoes,
I got the [G]1990 blues,
and I'm [D]cryin', cryin' off the blues.
When I [G]looked in my billfold,
all of my money was gone.
[F]My wo [G]man must be doin' something,
[F]she's not [D]takin' care
of business at home.
The [G]kids are crying for food
I don't know what I'm gonna do
[F]I los[G]t my job this morning
I'm [A]down and out of the blue
I got the [G]blues, y 'all
I'm just crying out [D]the blues, Lord
[G]You [A]take away my pride
[G]Lord, how can I surviv[D]e?
[Dm]can [D]I survive?
Oh, [G]Lord
[F]Got the [G]blues, [F]Lord[D]
[G]Lord
Oh, [A]Lord
It would [D]hurt me so damn bad now
[G]If I only knew what was going [D]on[G][D]
You see I'm [G]having so much trouble
down here baby
Please tell me what have I done [D]wrong
[G]I wanna k[D]now, listen
[G]I got h[A]oles all in my shoes
I got the [G]1990 blues
And I'm [D]crying, [G]crying [D]on the blues
[A]No, [G]Lord, [D]I'm cryin', [G]cryin'[D],
cryin' out [G]the blues
I [D]don't know what I'm gonna do
And I'm cry[G]in', cry[F]in',
[D]cry[A]in' out[C] the[D] blues[G]
[D]Listen, you see my baby need foo[G]d
I [F]don't know what [D]I'm gonna do, Lord
I'm cryin', [G]I l[D]ost my job today,
I got the [G]blues, I got the [D]1990 blues
And [C]I'm [D]cryin', Lord,
[G]I n[D]eed some money to help me, Lord
I'm cryin',
[G]all[F] of my mon[D]ey is gone, ha
And I'm cry[G]in', I'm just [D]cryin',
cryin', cryin', cryin', [G]baby[D]
I've got the blues, y 'all
[G]I d[D]on't know what
I'm gonna do now
I've got the blues
[G]I've got the [D]1990 blues
I cry
[D]I've [G]it all in my soul, oh
I cry
