Blistered
By Johnny Cash
Written by: Billy Ed Wheeler 1963
Capo 1
A
I got great big blisters on my bloodshot eyes from lookin'
A E A
At that long legged woman up ahead
A
What she does simply walkin' down the sidewalks of that city
A E A
Makes me think about a stray cat gettin' fed
D
She's got a whole lotta motion in her soul I know
A E
But her soul ain't the place she lets it show
Chorus:
E
She got a body, oh yeah, she got a motion, oh yeah,
E
Lord I'm blistered, oh yeah
A D
She done tore my soul apart put big blisters on my heart
E A
What a mighty crazy crooked way to go
I got great big blisters on my fingertips from reachin'
In my pocketbook and pickin' out the bills
And I got tiny white blisters in my throat from tryin'
To ease my nervous tension takin' all them happy pills
And ever since she started runnin' round from bar to bar
I just can't eat a bite or keep my stomach settled down
Chorus twice

Where's the solo after the first chorus? And after he sings the first chorus, he goes:
bom bom bom whow whow whow or something like that, and when he does the chorus twice at the end of the song, the words are:
She got a body oh yeah she got a motion oh yeah
She done got me oh yeah
She done tore my soul apart but big blisters
on my heart what a might crazy crooked way
to go
And the bom bom bom .... but he sings it lower.
The he goes: She got a body oh yeah she got a
motion oh yeah Lord I'm blistered oh yeah
Then it fades out with him singin some.
For the humming part or whatever it is, do you just hold the "A"?
