[Verse 1]
F
I'll lock myself away
F
And not face one more day
Gm
Gm
And all I've got to lose
C
Is a feelin' called the blues
F
And a little old frown
[Verse 2]
F
I signed your dotted line
F
And did my best at tryin'
Gm
Givin' all I could give
Gm
And all I've gotten back
C
Is this feelin' that I lack
F
What I'm needing to live
[Chorus]
Gm
And you say you don't see it
F
When a grown man starts to cry
Gm Bb C
You turn your face away and you walk on by
F
I found myself a girl
F
Who brightened up my world
Gm
From December to May
Gm
And then ran off with Jim
C
But I'll defer to him
F
And his purple beret
F
'Cause he knows how to wheel and deal
Gm
And not to feel when he's knockin' you down
Gm
And I know he'll succeed
C
'Cause thatâ s just what you need
F
On the streets of this town
Gm
And you say you don't see it
F
When a grown man starts to cry
Gm Bb C
You turn your face away and you walk on by
[Instrumental Bridge]
F Gm C F
F
I'll lock myself away
F
And not face one more day
Gm
On the streets of this town
Gm
And all I've got to lose
C
Is a feelin' called the blues
F
That's been going around
F
I fit your crazy norm and wore your uniform
Gm
Where you told me to go
Gm
And got back in return
C
This here feelin' that I've learned
F
What the Indians know
Gm
And you say you don't see it
F
When a grown man starts to cry
Gm Bb C
You turn your face away and you walk on by
