Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][F][C]

[Verse 1]
Nobody [C]know,
nobody know what I've been through
Nobody [F]know, [C]kno[F]w what
I've been [C]through
Sometime, sometime I didn't have
food to go on my table

[Verse 2]
That's why I sang the blues
[F]You got to feel it, you got to know it
You got to be and [C]been through this
thing to sing the blues
And that's why nobody know what I've been

[Interlude 1]
through
[C][F][C][F][G][C]

[Verse 3]
[C]I was born [F]on a little cotton [C]farm
My mother and my father were very poor
I was unprivileged,
[F]I didn't have a chance
And [C]that's why [F]I just

[Verse 4]
sang the blue
[F]
[C]People, you don't know I've been through
I wonder why everything I do
I just can't get lucky,

[Interlude 2]
save my life
[C][F][C][F]
[C]

[Verse 5]
My mother [C]and my father both
are dead and gone
They loved me in the world alone
I ain't got nobody to tell my trouble to
[F]Well, I'm drifting, I'm drifting
I'm drifting from town to town
[C]

[Verse 6]
[F]But nobody [C]know
I've been [F]through

[Outro 1]
[C][F][C][C]
