 A               B7             E
Just around the corner there's heartache
 A                    B7    E
Down the street that losers use
    A           B7             E
If you can wade in through the teardrops
        A              B7          E
You'll find me at the Home of the Blues

I walk and cry while my heartbeat
Keeps time with the drag of my shoes
The sun never shines through this window of mine
It's dark at the Home of the Blues

Chorus:
              A                                E
Oh, but the place is filled with the sweetest mem'ries
 B7                       E
Mem'ries so sweet that I cry
  A                           E
Dreams that I've had left me feelin' so bad
F#7                                     B7
I just want to give up and lay down and die


So if you just lost your sweetheart
And it seems there's no good way to choose
Come along with me misery loves company
You're welcome at the Home of the Blues

Oh, but the place is filled with the sweetest memories
Memories so sweet that I cry
Dreams that I've had left me feeling so bad
I just want to give up and lay down and die

E                   A              B7           E
Yeah, you're gonna find me at the Home of the Blues
