            A       Cdim7    G7       F#7  
I've got a lovesick tale to tell to you
B7     E7           A          E7
Though it ain't no fail of mine
            A       Cdim7    
It's about a gal named sue
       G7       F#7  
And a boy named lou
B7                        E7
They were fightin' all the time
    C#7          F#7
Sue came home one afternoon
    B7              E7
And found an empty dining room


     A    Cdim7
Without a word
       G7           F#7  
A turtledove had flown 
   B7        E7  
Sue began to moan
     A            A7
"My sweetie went away
       D7      A/D7
But he didn't say where
       Dm7      A/Dm7
He didn't say when
        A7       D7
He didn't say why
      B7            E7*
Without biddin' me goodbye
     B7            E7* A   Cdim    B7 E7*
Oh I'm blue as I can be


     A            A7
I know he loves another one 
       D7      A/D7
But he didn't say who
       Dm7      A/Dm7
He didn't say when
        A7       D7
He didn't say what
      B7            E7*
His momma has got
     B7            E7*     A   Dm7  A
That took my sweetie from me


          C#7
I'm like a little lost sheep

And I can't sleep
              F#m7
But I keep tryin' to forget 
 E           Fm       F#m7      B7        E7 Em7 
My travelin' poppa, he left his momma all alone
E7 E7*
I groan

  A            A7
"My sweetie went away
       D7      A/D7
But he didn't say where
       Dm7      A/Dm7
He didn't say when
        A7       D7
He didn't say why
      B7            E7*
I know I'll die
     B7            E7*  A A7* D7 Dm7 A  G7 G#7 A7
Why don't he hurry on home?
