[Intro]
E7 A

[Chorus]
D A
I pledge allegiance to the blues each night at midnight
B7 E7
And to these united heartaches that they call
D A
One woman, so indifferent that she gave me
E7 A
The liberty I didn't want at all

[Verse 1]
A E7
We the people, faced with heartache
A
Have the right to vote on how we live
E7
And so I pledge allegiance to the blues, now
A
And sacrifice the love I had to give

[Interlude]
E7 A

[Verse 2]
A E7
Never have so many known so little
A
About the way the blues can crush a man
E7
I shall not return and find a new love
A
I'll just fade away and try to understand

[Chorus]
D A
I pledge allegiance to the blues each night at midnight
B7 E7
And to these united heartaches that they call
D A
One woman, so indifferent that she gave me
