I hate to see   that evenin' sun go down 
A        A7               Gdim Cdim  E    
I hate to see that evenin' sun  go down 
B7                     B7/F#      E    Edim  B7 
'Cause my baby, he has left this town 
        E               A        A7  A6  E  
If I'm feelin' tomorrow  like I feel today

If I'm feelin' tomorrow like I feel  today

I'll pack my trunk   and make my get-away 
Em          Am7    Em            C       B7      C   B7 
Saint Louis woman, with all her diamond rings 
B7                Cdim   B7        Am7     Em      F#7 B7 
Stole that man of mine      by her apron strings 
      Em          Am7  Em           C           B7      C   B7 
If it wasn't for powder   and her store-bought hair

The man I love      wouldn't'a gone nowhere, nowhere

Got the Saint Louie Blues, just as blue  as  I can be 
     A     A6     A7                   Gdim Cdim  E 
That man's got a heart like a rock cast in  the  sea 
Edim B7      B7/F#          A     Gdim Cdim  E  
 Or else he wouldn't have gone so far from me 
B7  E  Em  E     Em   E                E Edim E 
I love that man like a schoolboy loves his pie 
       A     A6  A7               Gdim   Cdim  E 
Like a Kentucky Colonel loves his rocker and rye 
Edim   B7      B7/F#   A     Gdim Cdim E  
Gonna love that man   til the day  I   die
