I'm just a wo-man, a lone-ly wo-man,
5 -4 4 4 5 -4 4
Wait-ing on the wea-ry shore.
6 6 6 6 5 5 5 5 5 4
I'm just a wo-man that’s on-ly hu-man,
4 4 4 4 6 -5b 5
One you should be sor-ry for.

Got up this morn-ing a-long a-bout dawn.

With-out a warn-ing I found that he was gone.
6 6 6 6 5 5 5 5 5 4
Why should he do it? How could he do it?

Am I blue. Am I blue.
4 4 -6b 6 -6b 4 5 -4 4
Ain't these tears in these eyes tel-lin' you?
4 4 5 4 4 -5b
Am I blue? You’d be, too,
4 4 6 6 -6b 4 5 -4 4
If each plan with your man done fell through.
4 4 6 -6 -6b 6 -5b- 6b -5b
Was a time I was his on-ly one.
4 4 -5b -6b 6 -5b 5 6 6
But now I'm the sad and lone-ly one.
5 -4 4 4 5 4 4 -5b
Law-dy Was I gay 'til to-day?

Now he’s gone,
-6 -6b 4
And we’re through.
5 -4 4 4 4 5
Am I blue, am I blue
VERSE 2
It’s aggravatin’ to stand here waitin
Suicide’s my only plan
I think it’s awful his treatment ofme
It’s most unlawful how mean he can be
I can’t forget him
I’m bound to get him
I’ll run him down if I can
ENJOY!!!
Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
