[C] Singing The Blues, Guy Mitchell, 1956<\/span><\/div>\n
Well, I [C] never felt more like [F] singin’ the blues\u2028’
\nCause [C] I never thought that [F] I’d ever [G] lose,
\nYour [F] love dear\u2028 – [G] Why’d you do me this [C] way?<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Well, I never felt more like cryin’ all night\u2028’
\nCause everythin’s wrong, and nothin’ ain’t right, <\/span>
\nWithout you. –\u00a0 You got me singin’ the blues.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The [F] moon and stars no [C] longer shine,<\/span><\/div>\n
\n

The [F] dream is gone I [C] thought was mine
\nThere’s [F] nothin’ left for [C] me to do,
\nBut [C] cry over [G] you<\/span><\/p>\n

Well, I [C] never felt more like [F] runnin’ away
\nBut [C] why should I go ’cause [F] I couldn’t [G] stay,
\nWith-[C]-out you.\u00a0 \u2028[G] You got me singin’ the [C] blues<\/span><\/p>\n
