(intro)  E B7 E B7

            E         B7          E               A
Trouble in mind, I'm blue, but I won't be blue always,
           E                       B7               E   B7
'cause the sun's gonna shine round my back door someday.

           E          B7                E                  A
I'm going down to the river, I'm gonna take me a rocking chair,
            E                      B7                E    B7
and if the blues don't leave, I'll rock on away from here.
           E          B7          E               A
Trouble in mind, I'm blue, but I won't be blue always,
          E                    B7               E    B7
'cause the sun's gonna shine in my back door someday.

            E            B7           E              A
Trouble in mind, that's true, I have almost lost my mind,
E                          B7                E   B7
life ain't worth living, I feel like I could die.

            E         B7            E                 A
Trouble in mind, I'm blue, my poor heart is healing slow,
        E                   B7               E   B7
I never had such trouble in my whole life before.

           E      B7           E                 A
I'm gonna lay my head on some lonesome railroad line,
            E              B7                     E    B7
and let that 2:19 special        ease my troubled mind.
           E         B7           E              A
Trouble in mind, I'm blue, but I won't be blue always,
           E                    B7                E
'cause the sun's gonna shine in my back door someday.
