This is the chords of Better Off With The Blues by Delbert McClinton on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar and Keyboard.
[Intro]
A G D
[Verse 1]
D
Since you been gone I\’ve had time to myself
Haven\’t even tried to find somebody else
G D
When you told me you were leavin\’, you know it almost came as good news
A G D
It may sound funny but it\’s true, I think I\’m better off with the blues
[Verse 2]
D
Now ,I must admit that I miss you sometimes
Not a day goes by, that you don\’t cross my mind
G D
But at the same time, I think of all the hell you put me through
A G D
Yeah, it\’s the lesser of two evils, I think I\’m better off with the blues
[Verse 3]
D
I know some day I\’ll wake up and this blues will be gone
I\’ll forget about you and how everything went wrong
G D
But if you had to stay, I\’d be dead in my tracks
A G D
Now, I still love you, baby, but I don\’t want you back
[Verse 4]
D
Tonight I\’m gonna go down to the sad side of town
Listen to \’em play the blues when the sun goes down
G D
And I\’ll know just what to say, when someone asks about you
A G D
I\’ll say, yeah, we had our good times but I think I\’m better off with the blues
A G D
Yeah, if I had to choose, I say I\’m better off with the blues
