Em F I've got the worried blues, Em And I don't know what to do. F D It seems my dreams G Have been tarnished by events. G And I think of you F and I hope that we aren't done. Em You're the one I need D G To get me through a lonely lifetime. G Some of the things they said F Well, they might have been true Em D G But I really don't appreciate it so much. (Strike the G chord like 7 or 8 times at the end) C Em Just yesterday I had so much to say. F D Seemed like people wanted to listen. Em G2 But now today nobody wants to have a thing to do with me~~~. (Strike G2 chord throughout the 'me.') G And I'm so sad. F Everything has turned out bad. Em I tried so hard, D G But goofed up somehow. G I just want you to know F I didn't mean no harm on purpose. D Em But they turned it into a circus G Just to put me down G But I'm still around. F Maybe I'll have another chance. D Em To turn the tables G And be a hero in the end (Strike the G chord like 7 or 8 times at the end) C Em Just yesterday I had so much to say. F D Seemed like people wanted to listen. Em G2 But now today nobody wants to have a thing to do with me~~~. (Strike G2 chord throughout the 'me.') Em And so I'm singin' F The 1989 blues. Em D But I'm lookin' forward to: G A better future for me and you. Em And now comes, F The end of this song. Em D Some of the things I did might have been wrong G Em But it's only because I was out of my mind. G2 F G The 1989 Blues (At the end, play the G2 a few times rapidly, then switch to an F and end on a G.) Edits/corrections are very welcome. I'm not 100% on this. Enjoy!
