LYRICS
I got the blues when my ba by left me (Eb)by the San Fran cis co (Bb)Bay.
She’s tak in’ an (Eb)o cean lin er and she’s gone so far a (Bb)way.
I (Eb)did n’t mean to treat her so (Ebm6)bad.
She’s the (Bb)best gal I ev er have (G7)had.
She (C7)said good bye, gon na make me cry,
I’m gon na lay down and die.
I (Bb)have n’t got a nick el, (Eb)ain’t got a lous y (Bb)dime.
If she (Eb)don’t come back, I think I’m gon na lose my (D7)mind.
If she (Eb)ev er comes back to (Ebm6)stay,
there’s gon na (Bb)be an oth er brand new day,
(C7)walk in’ with my ba by down (F7)by the San Fran cis co Bay.
(Bb)Sit tin’ down and look in’ through my back door,
won d’rin’ which way to go.
(Eb)Wom an I’m so cra zy ’bout, she don’t want me no (Bb)more.
(Eb)Think I’ll take me a (Ebm)freight train,
be cause I’m feel in’ (G7)blue.
(C7)Ride all the way till the end of the line,

(Bb)Mean while, in an oth er cit y,
just a bout to go in sane,

(C7)walk in’ with my ba by down (F7)by the San Fran cis co Bay.
