Verse: 1
    E      C#m
Oh, the ragman draws circles
E        C#m
Up and down the block
  E        C#m
I’d ask him what the matter was
   A         B (7)
But I know that he don’t talk
    A        E
And the ladies treat me kindly
     C#m       E
And they furnish me with tape
  C#m      E
But deep inside my heart
 A       E
I know I can’t escape
G#m
Oh Mama, can this really be the end?
   E    B    C#m
To be stuck inside of Mobile,
E    Asus2     E
With the Memphis blues again? bass: E, D, B, A, G#, E:
Verse: 2
   E            C#m
Well, Shakespeare, he’s in the alley
     E           C#m
With his pointed shoes and his bells
E         C#m
 Speaking to some French girl
  A         B
Who says she knows me well
  A       E
And I would send a message
  C#m       E
To find out if she’s talked
    C#m         E
But the post office has been stolen
    A     E
And the mailbox is locked
G#m
Oh Mama, can this really be the end?
   E    B    C#m
To be stuck inside of Mobile,
E    A    Asus2 E
With the Memphis blues again?  bass: E, D, B, A, G#, E:


Verse: 3
E       C#m
Mona tried to tell me
  E            C#m
To stay away from the train line
  E         C#m
She said that all the railroad men
      A         B
Just drink up your blood like wine
   A          E
An’ I said, “Oh, I didn’t know that
      C#m            E
But then again, there’s only one I’ve met
  C#m        E
An’ he just smoked my eyelids
  A       E
An’ punched my cigarette”
G#m
Oh Mama, can this really be the end?
   E    B    C#m
To be stuck inside of Mobile,
E    A    Asus2 E
with the Memphis blues again?  bass: E, D, B, A, G#, E:


Verse: 4
E         C#m
Grandpa died last week
       E       C#m
And now he’s buried in the rocks
  E        C#m
But everybody still talks about
  A        B
How badly they were shocked
  A          E
But me, I expected it to happen
 C#m        E
I knew he’d lost control
    C#m       E
When he built a fire on Main Street
  A        E
And shot it full of holes
G#m
Oh Mama, can this really be the end?
   E    B    C#m
To be stuck inside of Mobile,
E    A    Asus2 E
With the Memphis blues again?  bass: E, D, B, A, G#, E:


Verse: 5
    E    C#m
Now the senator came down here
E          C#m
Showing ev’ryone his gun
E         C#m
 Handing out free tickets
    A       B
To the wedding of his son
  A        E
An’ me, I nearly got busted
  C#m        E
An’ wouldn’t it be my luck
    C#m       E
To get caught without a ticket
     A         E
And be discovered beneath a truck
G#m
Oh Mama, is this really the end?
   E    B    C#m
To be stuck inside of Mobile,
E    A    Asus2 E
With the Memphis blues again?  bass: E, D, B, A, G#, E:


Verse: 6
    E         C#m
Now the preacher looked so baffled
    E        C#m
When I asked him why he dressed
   E        C#m
With twenty pounds of headlines
A       B
Stapled to his chest
    A        E
But he cursed me when I proved to him
    C#m             E
Then I whispered, “Not even you can hide
  C#m          E
You see, you’re just like me
 A        E
I hope you’re satisfied”
G#m
Oh Mama, can this really be the end?
   E    B    C#m
To be stuck inside of Mobile,
E    A    Asus2 E
with the Memphis blues again?  bass: E, D, B, A, G#, E:


Verse: 7
    E        C#m
Now the rainman gave me two cures
    E         C#m
Then he said, “Jump right in”
  E        C#m
The one was Texas medicine
  A            B
The other was just railroad gin
  A       E
An’ like a fool I mixed them
    C#m       E
An’ it strangled up my mind
    C#m       E
An’ now people just get uglier
   A        E
An’ I have no sense of time
G#m
Oh Mama, can this really be the end?
   E    B    C#m
To be stuck inside of Mobile,
E    Asus2     E
with the Memphis blues again?  bass: E, D, B, A, G#, E:


Verse: 8
   E        C#m
When Ruthie says come see her
    E      C#m
In her honky-tonk lagoon
      E          C#m
Where I can watch her waltz for free
      A      B
’Neath her Panamanian moon
   A       E
An’ I say, “Aw come on now
  C#m            E
You know you know about my debutante”
          C#m              E
An’ she says, “Your debutante just knows what you need
  A        E
But I know what you want”
G#m
Oh Mama, can this really be the end?
   E    B    C#m
To be stuck inside of Mobile,
E    Asus2     E
with the Memphis blues again?  bass: E, D, B, A, G#, E:


Verse: 9
    E       C#m
Now the bricks lay on Grand Street
     E      C#m
Where the neon madmen climb
   E         C#m
They all fall there so perfectly
  A         B
It all seems so well timed
  A       E
An’ here I sit so patiently
C#m           E
Waiting to find out what price
  C#m        E
You have to pay to get out of
   A            E
Going through all these things twice
G#m
Oh Mama, is this really the end?
   E    B    C#m
To be stuck inside of Mobile,
E    Asus2      E :
with the Memphis blues again?
