Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[A]Wel[D]l[G][D][G][D][A]
[D]someone made a mistake
[G]When they said life was a bow[D]l of fruit
[G]You know I had to go downtown
And pawn my last [D]suit[Dm]
[Am]You know I was born to lose[G]
For me there ain't no escape
from the blues
[D][G]

[Verse 2]
[A]You know I haven't see[D]n
or heard [Dm]from my woman
[G]Since the last day I got pai[D]d
[G]She said son if you
ain't got no money
I ain't gonna hang around
and be your [D]maid
Well [Am]you know I was born to [G]lose
For me there ain't no escape
from the blues
[D][G]

[Verse 3]
[D][G][A]
Well [Dm]I broke down hungry
[G]I got to go out to the[D] well yar[Dm]d
[G]I got to get myself a food stamp
So I can buy myself a cup of [D]coffee[Dm]
Well I can [Am]see I was born to lose
[G]For me there ain't no escape
from the blues
[D][Dm][G]

[Verse 4]
[D][A]
You know I [Dm]had worn out my shoes
[G]And now I'm wearing out[Dm] my soc[D]ks
Well I ain't got [G]no rent to pay,
no rent to pay
They're changing my front door [D]locks
[G]Well I can [A]see I was born [Am]to lose[G]
For me there ain't no escape
from the blues
[D][G][D]
