[Verse 1] I’m grieving, I’m peeving For the man I love All I had is gone away from me He never even come to say goodbye I cannot understand why he went away Out of all the goodness I have been And now he’s left me grieving after him [Chorus] I’ve got the weary blues And don’t know what to do Oh the weary blues makes me feel so blue I can’t help but cry, sit and sigh Law’d knows I will die if I keeps having, Having these here weary blues [Instrumental interlude - fuzzy guitar solo — bends, tremolo, power chords, extended band jam] [Bridge - spoken, softly phrased, melancholic tone, voice nearly trembling] He took my love and left me bare No letter, no trace, just empty air My voice is hoarse, my heart is dry And still I whisper to the sky [Verse 2] I’m thinking just thinking what on earth to do Maybe some day he’ll come back to me And stop this poor, poor aching heart of mine He’s goin’ to, he’s bound to miss all that’s been done For him by this ever lovin’ gal He’s goin’ to find out who’s his one best pal [Chorus] I’ve got the weary blues And don’t know what to do Oh the weary blues makes me feel so blue I can’t help but cry, sit and sigh Law’d knows I will die if I keeps having, Having these here weary blues [Outro - spoken, groove slowly fading out] I’ve got the weary blues And don’t know what to do Blues...
