C
Oh, I'm really feeling mighty low no, no, no,
I got no place that I can go.
 G                                  F
So, I've got some blues to sing and oh, so much
              C
remembering, woe.

C      F                    C            F
Black cats, keep away from me take my advice,
                 C
go shinny up a tree.
       G              F
I got hard luck, the hardest kind a luck you'll
 C
find.
         A                    D
I ain't lyin', I've got the bluest kinda blues,
  G                        C  F G
drivin' me right outta my mind.

She's gone, said, toodle-oo kissed her goodbye
and my, my, my money, too.
I've got hard luck, the hardest kinda luck you've
seen.
I mean, the way I'm runnin' lately, my lucky number
is thirteen.

F
Where do I belong, everything I do is wrong all
  C
wrong, wrong as can be.
        F
Who's stacking all the decks, Lady Luck has got the
        D              G
hex on me..I'm on her knee, da, da, da, da.

Shove off, boy, I'm warning you.
This thing I caught, you know,
could be catchin', too.
I've got hard luck,
the hardest kinda luck there can be.
Yes, siree, I guess hard luck always chooses,
natural born losers like me.
