Standard (EADGBE)

It's four in the morn ing,

Edim7 +5+9

There's not a soul around

This dirty hot el room

[13] C7#9

Has really got me down

A modern day minstrel,

They got my name in light s

I w ish these days of glamour

Didn't have these lonely nights

I'm o n the road to fortune

And I got the suitcase blues real bad

I guess I'm makin' paym ents

Em7b5 +5+9

For the dues that must be paid

I cash another son g

Into this endless masquerade

halfway through the circuit

And headed for the coast

Been gon e so long I can't remember

What I miss the most, ah, but,

Me and Johnny Walker,

orEb9

And the comfort that he brings,

Waitin' on the telephone

That never, ever rings

On the lonely road to fortune,

and I got the suitcase blues real bad

or or REPEAT

I got the blues

And I got them really bad

The suitcase bl ues

Are the worst I ever had

all by my l onesome

And I'm halfway 'round the bend

I don't min d drinkin' solo

But I sure could use a frie nd

[9]

Me and Johnny Walker,

And the comfort that he brings,

Waitin' on the telephone

That never, ever rings

On the lon ely road to fortune,

and I got the suitcase blues real

bad
