Verse 1:

     F minorFm          Bb majorBb       F minorFm
Well you woke up this morning, got yourself a gun
   F minorFm            Bb majorBb     F minorFm
Your mama always said you'd be, the chosen one
     F minorFm               Bb majorBb       F minorFm
She said, you're one in a million, you've got to burn to shine
      F minorFm               Bb majorBb        F minorFm
But you were born under a bad sign, with a blue moon in your eyes

       F minorFm          Bb majorBb        F minorFm
And when you woke up this morning, all that love had gone
   F minorFm            Bb majorBb     F minorFm
Your papa never told you, about right and wrong
        F minorFm                  Bb majorBb           F minorFm
Hey but you're, but you're looking good baby, I believe that you're feeling fine, shame about it
F minorFm              Bb majorBb        F minorFm
Born under a bad sign, with a blue moon in your eyes

Chorus 1:

F minorFm             Bb majorBb                 F minorFm
Woke up this morning, got a blue moon, got a blue moon in your eyes
F minorFm      B minorBm               F minorFm
Its so sad, a goddamn, a goddamn shame about it,
F minorFm               Bb majorBb        F minorFm
Woke up this morning, you got a blue moon in your eyes
F minorFm               Bb majorBb        F minorFm


Verse 2:

     F minorFm            Bb majorBb         F minorFm
When you woke up this morning, the world turned upside down, lord above
  F minorFm                   Bb majorBb        F minorFm
Thing's ain't been the same, since the blues walked into town
      F minorFm                   Bb majorBb           F minorFm
But you're, but you're one in a million, cause you got that shotgun shine, boom
F minorFm              Bb majorBb        F minorFm
Born under a bad sign, with a blue moon in your eyes, yeah

Chorus 2:

F minorFm             Bb majorBb                 F minorFm
Woke up this morning, got a blue moon, got a blue moon in your eyes
F minorFm      B minorBm               F minorFm
Its so sad, a goddamn, a goddamn shame about it,
F minorFm               Bb majorBb        F minorFm
Woke up this morning, you got a blue moon in your eyes
F minorFm               Bb majorBb           F minorFm
I know it.......................You just can't help yourself!


Bridge: (rap section)

When you woke up this morning everything was gone,
By half past ten your head was going ding-dong
Ringing like some bell from your head down to your toes,
Like some voice trying to tell you there's something you should know

Last night you was flying but today you're so low
Times like these makes you wonder if you'll ever know
Meaning of things as they appear to the others
Wives, husbands, fathers, sisters and brothers

Don't you wish you didn't function, wish you didn't think
Beyond the next paycheck and the next little drink'
Well you do make up your mind to go on, 'cos
When you woke up this morning everything you had was gone


(chorus till fade)
