NO ESCAPE FROM THE BLUES
As recorded by Muddy Waters
(From the 1981 Album KING BEE)

[Intro]
E7 B7

[Verse 1]
E7
Well someone made a mistake
A7 E7
When they said life was a bowl of fruit
A7
You know I had to go downtown
E7
And pawn my last suit
B7
You know I can see I was born to lose
A7 E7
For me there isn't no escape from the blues

[Verse 2]
B7 E7
You know I haven't seen or heard from my woman
A7 A7
Since the last day I got paid
A7
She said son if you haven't got no money
E7
I'm not going to hang around and be your maid
B7
You know I can see I was born to lose
A7 E7 B7
For me there isn't no escape from the blues

[Verse 3]
E7
Well I broke down hungry
A7 E7
I got to go out to the well yard
A7
I got to get myself a food stamp
E7
So I can buy myself a cup of coffee
B7
You know I can see I was born to lose
A7 E7 B7
For me there isn't no escape from the blues

[Verse 4]
E7
You know I had worn out my shoes
A7 E7
And now I'm wearing out my socks
A7
Well I ain't got no rent to pay, no rent to pay
