            C                        F                    C
I got the blues from my baby livin' by the San Francisco Bay
    F                         C
The ocean liners not so far away
   F
I didn't mean to treat her so bad;
             C                     A7
she was the best girl I ever have had
 D7                              G7
I said goodbye; I can take a cry,
I wanna lay down and die

  C                         F                 C
I ain't got a nickle and I ain't got a lousy dime
     F                                        E
She don't come back, think I'm gonna lose my mind
       F                                 C                  A7
If she ever get back to stay it's gonna be another brand new day
 D7                  G7                     C
Walkin' with my baby down by San Francisco Bay

Sittin' down lookin' from the back door wondrin' which way to go
Woman I'm so crazy 'bout she don't love me no more
Think I'll catch me a freight train cause I'm feelin' blue
Ride all the way to the end of the line thinkin' only you

Meanwhile livin' in the city just about to go insane
All I heard my baby Lord the way she used to call my name
If she ever get back to stay it's gonna be another brand new day
Walkin with my baby down by San Francisco Bay
Walkin with my baby down by San Francisco Bay
Yeah, walkin with my baby down by San Francisco Bay
