Rockabilly Blues chords by Johnny Cash

Verse 1:

G
I took a tour to Texas and from Waco I called you

G
But day by day no answer and I'm big Bluebonnet blue

    C
I'm singing and they're dancing but I'm feeling Big D bad

G                           D          G
I'm Sweetwater beat And I'm Texas City sad


Chorus:

    C
The rhythm keeps me living

    C                  G
But have you heard the news

          G
There's a sad song singer coming

         D          G
With the rockabilly blues


Verse 2:

G
It's hard to keep on singing when you're lonesome to the bone

G
10,000 happy people but I'm San Antone alone

    C
One night stands and the man demands that I get up and go

G                        D          G
I'm Odessa desperate and San Angelo low


Chorus:

    C
The rhythm keeps me living

    C                  G
But have you heard the news

          G
There's a sad song singer coming

         D          G
With the rockabilly blues


Verse 3:

G
It's the same old tune in Temple about the loving I ain't had

G
I'm getting Beaumont bitter and Amarillo mad

     C
I'm giving up on calling you 'cause you're evading me

G                                   D            G
I'm coming home and if you're gone, I'm gonna be Tennessee free


Chorus:

    C
The rhythm keeps me living

    C                  G
But have you heard the news

          G
There's a sad song singer coming

         D          G
With the rockabilly blues
