Blues As Blues Can Get - Chris Farlowe

Gonna sit right down in my easy chair

Pull out a deck of cards, I’m gonna play some solitaire

Break out a bottle, wash me a glass

To keep me company 'til the feelings pass

Everybody needs something to do

Me, I’ll just sit here and think about you

It might seem hopeless, but it ain’t that bad yet

It’s just the blues as blues can get…

I need to call somebody, someone I can trust

I need the number for Lovers Anonymous

I’ll tell 'em my story, hope they’ll understand

Maybe they can explain it to me

'Cause I don’t think I can

I’ll take your picture down from my wall

Try to remember the thrill of it all

I know it’s over, but it ain’t over yet

It’s just the blues as blues can get…

Why fight the feeling when I can’t fight back the tears?

I stare at the ceiling and I wish that you were here

I’m going crazy, but I ain’t crazy yet

It’s just the blues as blues can get… yeah, yeah

Just the blues as blues can get

It’s just the blues

I know it’s over but it ain’t over yet
