E7                  Am   Am(maj7) Am7           E7
Some days I have to give  right   in to the blues
Am Am(maj7)    Am7        E7
           Despite how I try
                          Am   Am(maj7) Am7                E7
To keep fightin', it's a sure   shot    I'm going to lose
Am  Am(maj7)     Am7            C#m7
             And I'll tell you why
C#m7                  D6
You think I'm crazy
D6                           C#m7
It's such a sad composition
C#m7
But can you blame me
C/D                                            C7 B7
  For what's been causing my bad disposition?
B7                  C7    B7              C7  B7
Ain't nothing new with my blue situation
        Bb7                     A7 N.C.
And nothing's fine, it's just a mi nor variation

[Interlude]
E7    Am Am(maj7) Am7   E7 (x2)

[Verse 2]
E7                     Am   Am(maj7)  Am7                  E7
When troubles want to find   me     I ain't hard to find
Am  Am(maj7) Am7              E7
     They    know where I am
E7                     Am   Am(maj7)    Am7               E7
Like a hungry pack of wolves when     it's feeding time
Am  Am(maj7)       Am7       C#m7
             They tear up a man
C#m7                       D6
And it's a strange thing
D6                                 C#m7
'Cause now it don't really matter
C#m7
More of the same thing
C/D                                                C7 B7
   Don't even hurt it's all a part of the pattern
B7               C7     B7                 C7 B7
But still in all it's a small consolation
        Bb7           A7 N.C.
I just define it as a mi nor variation

[Interlude]
E7    Am Am(maj7) Am7   E7
E7    Am Am(maj7) Am7

[Chorus]
A7                                 Bb7
 Ain't no way to fight 'em darling
A7                            Bb7
 Ain't no way around 'em baby
A7                         Bb7
 Ain't no way to take 'em
B7   N.C.
   Nowhere to hide and believe me I've tried to shake 'em


[Verse 3]
E7                  Am    Am(maj7)   Am7                 E7
I'm getting to the point where     I don't feel the pain
Am  Am(maj7)  Am7          E7
      And I've had enough
E7                 Am  Am(maj7)  Am7             E7
I'm ready for the next  time it  hits me again
Am  Am(maj7)     Am7          C#m7
          'Cause I've gotten tough
C#m7                D6
It doesn't faze me
D6                             C#m7
And now I've made my decision
C#m7
I may be crazy
C/D                                               C7 B7
 It's not as though I don't know that condition
B7                  C7       B7              C7 B7
Until I'm through with this blue situation
B7          Bb7               A7 N.C.
Pass me the wine, it's just a minor variation

[Interlude]
E7    Am Am(maj7) Am7   E7
E7    Am Am(maj7) Am7

[Chorus]
A7                             Bb7
 Ain't nobody's business, baby
A7                             Bb7
 Ain't nobody's worry darlin'
A7                        Bb7
 Ain't nobody's problem
B7 N.C.
  No way to win when you've already been forgotten

      And it's a strange thing

'Cause now it don't really matter

B7                 C7        B7            C7  B7
Until I'm through with this blue situation
B7      Bb7                   A7 N.C.        E7
Pass me the wine, it's just a minor variation

[Outro]
Am  Am(maj7) Am7       E7       Am Am(maj7) Am7  E7
             minor variation
Am    Am(maj7) Am7          E7
  It ain't no major complication baby
Am     Am(maj7) Am7      E7   Am Am(maj7)
  It's just a  minor variation
Am7               E7  Am  Am(maj7)
That's all it is
Am7               E7
That's all it is
Am  Am(maj7) Am7        E7
It ain't no major aggravation
Am  Am(maj7) Am7      E7
It's just a minor variation
