CHORD CHART (12 bar blues)
[C] [C] [C] [C] [F] [F] [C] [C] [G] [F] [C] [C]

[C]Howlin' at midnight, winter creepin' in

Feel like I've gone and lost my best friend
My best [F]friend, lost my [C]best friend
This [G]car's headed [F]down the wrong track [C]again

[C]I ain't got nobody, I'm nobody's girl

Gonna get in my Mercury and drive around the world
Around the [F]world, all around the [C]world
[G]When I reach that mountain top [F]I'll stand with flags unf[C]urled

[C]She's up in New York City tryin' to make it big

Wrote me a letter yesterday sayin' I ain't got no gigs
Ain't got no [F]gigs, I ain't got no [G]gigs
[G]If you wanna send me somethin', [F]make it a two dollar [C]rig

GUITAR SOLO

[C]She's up in New York City tryin' to be a star

Told me you're wastin' your time where you are
Where you [F]are, where you [C]are
[G]Gotta get yourself out of [F]all those Texas b[C]ars

[C]Howlin' at midnight, winter creepin' in

Feel like I've gone and lost my best friend
My best [F]friend, lost my b[C]est friend
[G]This car's headed [F]down the wrong track a[C]gain
[G]This car's headed [F]down the wrong track [C]again
