[Verse 1]
    C
The good times I thought that we were havin'
C                                             C7
must not have been as good as good as I recall.
    F                           C      A7
But why am I the only one who's hurtin'
    D7                                 G        G7
and feelin' like the whole thing's all my fault?
   C
Re-member how I always said I loved you
C                                      C7
and wanted to be with you all the time?
      F                 F#dim7       C       A7
And I never changed the way I felt a-bout you
   D7                G                C    C7
so tell me how could all the fault be mine?

[Chorus]
F                         C
I've been hurtin' way too long.
     D                            G
Some nights I even sit and cry un-til the break of dawn.
F#  F                             C  B Bb A
And now I know just what I got to do,
   D7                G          C
to-night I'm walkin' out on the blues.

[Verse 2]
C
I tried ev'ry way I know to please you.
C                                      C7
Ev'ry day I work my fingers to the bone,
   F                            C      A7
to buy you ev'ry-thing you ever wanted
    D7                               G    G7
and now I'm spending all my nights a-lone.
   C
So now I'm gonna try to please myself, dear,
                                      C7
and do some things I've always wanted to
      F          F#dim7              C         A7
I'm going out to-night and have some fun for a change,
    D7              G           C   C7
and I won't be here thinkin' of you.

[Chorus]
F                         C
I've been hurtin' way too long.
     D                            G
Some nights I even sit and cry un-til the break of dawn.
F#  F                             C  B Bb A
And now I know just what I got to do,
   D7                G          C
to-night I'm walkin' out on the blues.

[Outro]
F#  F                             C  B Bb A
And now I know just what I got to do,
N.C.
Tonight I'm walkin' out on the
C    C/Bb Adim7 Bb/Ab B C
blues.
