Written By : Hank Williams



INTRO: One strum on the "B"

VERSE ONE
B
Lord I went to the doctor..he took one look
            E                      B
He said the trouble with you ain't in my book
     E                          B
I'll tell you what it is but it ain't good news
                                     F#7      B
You've got an awful bad case of them low down blues

CHORUS

B            E                 B
I've got the mean old miseries in my soul
  E                          B
I went to the river but the waters too cold
     E                                B
I've walked the floor 'till I've worn out my shoes
                                      F#7      B
Lord they're killin' me ..I mean them low down blues

VERSE TWO
B
Lord I never knew a man... could feel this bad
  E                       B
I never knew livin' could be so sad.
E           B
All I do is set and cry
                               F#7          B
Lord I'd have to get better be-fore I could die

CHORUS

B            E                 B
I've got the mean old miseries in my soul
  E                          B
I went to the river but the waters too cold
       E                              B
I've walked the floor 'till I've worn out my shoes
                                      F#7      B
Lord they're killin' me ..I mean them low down blues
