Payday Blues chords by Dan Hicks

Chords with lyrics

Verse:
N.C.       D MajorD
I got my paycheck today
               A augmentedA
I think I'll spend it like a crazy fool
Or I'll give it all away
          D MajorD
Something like the golden rule

Verse:
N.C.         D MajorD
And my paycheck ain't hay
             A augmentedA
But somehow I just don't seem to care
Ever since she went away
              D MajorD
And left my little house so cold and bare

Verse:
N.C.            D MajorD
And I won't tell 'em at the bank
            A augmentedA
What I'm gonna do with all my dough
I'll just smile and tell 'em thanks
             D MajorD
For it's better than they shouldn't know

Verse:
N.C.          D MajorD
Then I'll go and have a drink
               A augmentedA
At a little place where I can sit and thin
Cause my baby went away
            D MajorD
And left me here on my payday

Chorus:
G+G         D MajorD
Paaaaaaayday was never like this
E MajorE         A augmentedA
Paaaaaaayday, but where is my happiness?
N.C.
I don't know!

Verse:
N.C.          D MajorD
Then I'll go and have a drink
               A augmentedA
At a little place where I can sit and thin
Cause my baby went away
            D MajorD
And left me here on my payday

Chorus:
G+G         D MajorD
Paaaaaaayday was never like this
E MajorE         A augmentedA
Paaaaaaayday, but where is my happiness?
N.C.
