  I got the blues from my baby, left me by the San Francisco Bay

The ocean liner's gone so far away

Sitting down looking from my back door

Wondering which way to go
F                                                         C
 The woman I'm so crazy about, she doesn't love me no more

Think I'll catch me a freight train, because I'm feeling blue

And ride all the way to the end of the line,  thinking only of you

Just about to go insane

 Thought I heard my baby, Lord, the way she used to call my name
     F                                        C                    A7
