Ninety Nine Year Blues chords by Hank Snow

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

   G7                                               C
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

     G7                                       C
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

    G7                                                   C
All the old friends I ever had done shook hands and gone away


My good gal told me the day I hit this can

       G7                                             C
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

       G7                                                      C
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

      G7                                            C
Cause I've lost everything except these ninety nine blues
