Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Em]

[Verse 1]
[Em]Well, you[A][Em][F][Em]
woke [G]up this [Em]morning
Got yourself a gun
Your mama always said you'd
be the chosen one

[Verse 2]
She [Em]said, you're one in a million,
you've got to burn to shine
But [A]you were [Em]born unde[G]r a bad sign[Em]
with a [A]blue moon [Em]in your eyes

[Verse 3]
And you woke up this morning
All that love [A]had gone
[Em]Your papa never told you
about right and wrong

[Verse 4]
But you're looking good, baby [Em]I believe
you're feeling fine
(shame about it)
Born under a bad sign with a [A]blue
moon [Em]in your eyes

[Verse 5]
Because [Em]you woke up this morning
Got a blue moon in your eyes
Woke up this morning

[Verse 6]
You got a blue moon in your eyes
[Em]
Well, you woke [G]up this [Em]morning
The world turned [G]upside down
[Em]Lord above, thing's ain't been the same
since Howlin' Wolf walked into your town
But you're one in a million,
you've got that shotgun shine
Born [G]under a bad [Em]sign with a
blue moon [G]in your [Em]eye s
You woke up this morning
You got a blue moon in your eyes
Woke up this morning

[Interlude 1]
You got a blue moon in your eyes
[Em][G][F][Em][F][Em]
[G][F]
[A][F][G][F][Em][F][Em][F][G][F][Em][F]
[Em]

[Verse 7]
When you [Em]woke up this morning
everything was gone
By half past ten your head
was going ding- dong
Ringing like a bell from your
head down to your toes,
Like a voice trying to tell you there's
something you should know
Last night you were flying
but today you're so low
Ain't it times like these that make
you wonder if you'll ever know
The meaning of things
as they appear to the others
Wives, mothers, fathers,
sisters and brothers
Don't you wish you didn't function,
don't you wish you didn't think beyond the next paycheck
And the next little drink?
Well, you do, so make up your mind to go on
'cause when you woke up this morning
Everything you had was gone,
everything you had was [A]gone

[Verse 8]
[Em]Woke up this morni[A]ng
Woke up this morning
[Em]Woke up this morning, you want to be,[A]
[Em]you want to be t[A]he chosen one to[Em]night
Yes, you know,
because [A]you [Em]just get help yourself

[Verse 9]
Woke [Em]up this morning
Woke up this morning
Woke up this morning
You got yourself a gun,

[Outro 1]
got yourself a gun, got yourself a gun
[Em]
