Ninety Nine Year Blues chords by Hank Snow

Chords with lyrics

C majorC
Lawd these ninety nine blues ain't no fancy dream

  G7G7                        C majorC
If you had two lives to live you'd know just what I mean


When the judge read the verdict it nearly knocked me down

   G7G7                    C majorC
Said boy you got two six's they're all upside down


It ain't the days I've been here it's the days I got to stay

  G7G7                          C majorC
All the old friends I ever had done shook hands and gone away


My good gal told me the day I hit this can

    G7G7                       C majorC
You've made your bed in sorrow now sleep on it like a man


Ninety nine and ninety nine make one hundred and ninety eight

    G7G7                           C majorC
That's four years pretty normal than you can figure up on your slate


I don't know what else is in the world to lose

   G7G7                      C majorC
Cause I've lost everything except these ninety nine blues
