All alone here I stand
         E
Heart in hell chin in hand
                                A
Thinking what will I do without you

Did I know  did I see
      E
Did I drive her away from me
                         A
Did I cause her to be so untrue
            E
The way she done me it ain't fair
          D             A    
Think I'm losing all my hair
         E             D           E
Paid the price for the life that I choose
                              A           E     A
It's a red letter day for the blues

You were young you were wild
         E 
You were nothing but a child
                                A
You were sweet as a honeysuckle tree

Before I know  before I saw
           E
You took a young man and turned him old
                                  A
And you drove on down the road of misery
            E
The way she done me it ain't fair
          D             A    
Think I'm losing all my hair
         E             D           E
Paid the price for the life that I choose
                              A           E     A
It's a red letter day for the blues

            E
The way she done me it ain't fair
          D             A    
Think I'm losing all my hair
         E             D           E
Paid the price for the life that I choose
                              A           
It's a red letter day for the blues
       E
It's a red letter day

It's a red letter day
                              A     E   A
It's a red letter day for the blues
