Guitar chords with lyrics

Verse 1:

 E              A          D             A
Last night when I felt so lonely and so blue

A                  D
I was playing that old time blues

      A               E
The blues of old Calahan.

              A       D              A
Well, he was born in Kentucky, far away

                      D
He would be soon the famest man
    A    E
Kentucky ever knew.


Chorus:

   A
I took my guitar and my old country fiddle

  D                     A        E
Played me a song of the old Calahan.

   A
He once was a star in the days of the union

D        A             E        A
We all know him as the old Calahan.


Verse 2:

 E            A            D            A
Well, he was poor with no penny to his name

  A                    D
There was sorrow and there was pain

     A              E
But no-one was to blame.

            A            D             A
He went to town, just a guitar in his hands

                    D
He made fortune and he got fame

    A       E
At last he made the grade.


Chorus:

   A
I took my guitar and my old country fiddle

  D                     A        E
Played me a song of the old Calahan.

   A
He once was a star in the days of the union

D        A             E        A
We all know him as the old Calahan.


Verse 3:

 E              A          D              A
Last night when I felt so lonely and so blue

A                  D
I was playing that old time blues

      A               E
The blues of old Calahan.

E         A           D               A
So I can tell you wherever, my best friends

  A                   D
When you're lonely, when you're blue

      A             E
Just play it like I do.


Chorus:

   A
I took my guitar and my old country fiddle

  D                     A        E
Played me a song of the old Calahan.

   A
He once was a star in the days of the union

D        A             E        A
We all know him as the old Calahan.


Chorus:

   A
I took my guitar and my old country fiddle

  D                     A        E
Played me a song of the old Calahan.

   A
He once was a star in the days of the union

D        A             E        A
We all know him as the old Calahan.
