VERSE 1

 6   6   6  6  5   5   5  5  5  4
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.

-5b  5   -5b 5   -4  -5b 5  -5b 5   -4
Got up this morn-ing a-long a-bout dawn.

 5    -4 5  -4   4  5   -4    5   -4  4  4
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?

5     -4 4   4   4   5  6
He'd nev-er done it be-fore.


REFRAIN

4  4   5    4  4 -5b
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?

 4   4    6
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
