Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[G]I u[D]sed t[G]o b[D]e a[G] rambler,
a [C]bootlegger an[G]d gambler,
but [D]really I was a good [G]man.
One day I sold some gin,
sold [C]it to the [G]wrong men,
now [A]they got me down
here in the can[D].
I've got [G]the jailhouse blues,
[C]the blues I can't [G]lose
Now if [D]ever I get free,
there'll be no more whiskey for me
I've [G]got the jailhouse blues
Oh, my lady, oh, [D]my lady,
oh, [G]my [C]lady[D][G]
I called up my honey, said, [C]dear,
bring [D]me down some [G]money
They've got me down
here in the [D]jungle
Won't [G]you go my bail
and [C]get me out of [G]jail
But she [D]said go and tell it to [G]the judge
I've got the jailhouse blues,
the [D]blues [C]I can't los[G]e
My [D]baby's turned me down,
when I get out
I'll leave this doggone town
I've [G]got the jailhouse blues
Oh my lady, the old [A]lady, [D]old lad[G]y
Now you can understand
Why [C]these doggone women love the [G]man
But wait until he runs out of [D]dough
They'll [G]kick you in the pants
Every [C]time they get [G]a chance
And [D]there won't be no gal no [G]more
I've got the jailhouse blues
The [C]blues I can't [G]lose
My [D]baby turned me down
When I get out
I'll leave this doggone town
I've got [G]the jailhouse blues
The old lady, the [D]lady,
oh, the old [G]lady.
