Standard (EADGBE)
It's four in the morning,
Edim7 +5+9
There's not a soul around
This dirty hotel room
[13] C7#9
Has really got me down
A modern day minstrel,
They got my name in lights
I wish these days of glamour
Didn't have these lonely nights
I'm on the road to fortune
And I got the suitcase blues real bad
I guess I'm makin' payments
Em7b5 +5+9
For the dues that must be paid
I cash another song
Into this endless masquerade [C7#9]
halfway through the circuit
And headed for the coast
Been gone 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 blues
Are the worst I ever had
all by my lonesome
And I'm halfway 'round the bend
I don't mind drinkin' solo
But I sure could use a frie[D7b9#5]nd
[9]
Me and Johnny Walker,
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 [A7#5]
