 When I was nine years old

With a woman he met on a train, oh
Am             Abaug
His little boy   ran to the room 
C/G              D7/F#
 Where his piano lay in wait for him
   C/G                  G                 [ C ]
He played and he played, he played and he played

He's got the blues, this boy   has got the blues

Am           Abaug
  A year ago,  I met a girl 
C/G                           D7/F#
 I thought we'd hit a massive groove

But she dumped me 
G
  And all we'd hit were the blues
