Verse 1:
E

Way out in the country, when I was seventeen
E
I'd be riding shotgun, you know what I mean
E
My friends thought I was crazy, maybe they were right
E
But I was gonna rock some day, morning noon and night

Chorus:
A                                E
Good times ain't as good as they used to be
A                           E
I don't feel as cool as the cool cool breeze
A
Woman ain't as willin', whiskey ain't as strong
                                                E
And blues ain't the blues, since Willie Dixon's gone

Verse 2:
E
I remember crazy music on a midnight show
E
Blastin' from Chicago comin' through my radio
E
Spirits of the Delta, shaking up my bed
E
Got myself a bad guitar, dreams inside my head

Chorus:
A                                E
Good times ain't as good as they used to be
A                           E
I don't feel as cool as the cool cool breeze
A
Woman ain't as willin', whiskey ain't as strong
                                                E
And blues ain't the blues, since Willie Dixon's gone

Verse 3:
E
Went to see my baby i was knocking on her door
E
Heard two sets of footsteps motivated cross the floor
E
Out back in the alley she could hear my motor start
E
Rock was inside my head, but blues was in my heart


Chorus:
A                                E
Good times ain't as good as they used to be
A                           E
I don't feel as cool as the cool cool breeze
A
Woman ain't as willin', whiskey ain't as strong
                                               E
And blues ain't the blues, since willie dixons gone
