I'm trying to locate the lyrics and chords for the rest of the song.
"Blue and lonesome, lonesome and blue...."
I suspect I.ve heard a bluegrass version of it.

Thanks!!!!!!

Wilco - Is it this one your lookin'for? - Bruce


BLUE AND LONESOME

The lonesome sound
Of a train rolling by
Makes me want to stop and cry
I recall the day
It took you away
I'm blue I'm lonesome too

Chorus:
When I hear that whistle blow
I want to pack my suitcase and go

In the dim of the night
In the pale moonlight
The wind it howls and moans
These lonesome blues
I just can't lose
I'm blue I'm lonesome too

Repeat Chorus

Oops! I just noticed you asked for chords too. Here it is again with chords in G. When I play it I substitute 9th chords for the C and D major chords to make it sound more bluesy/swingy.

BLUE AND LONESOME

(G) The lonesome sound
(G) Of a (C) train rolling (G) by
(G) Makes me want to (D) stop and (G) cry
(G) I recall the day
(G) It took (C) you (G) away
(G) I'm blue I'm (D) lonesome (G) too

Chorus:
(D) When I hear that (G) whistle blow
(A) I want to pack my (D) suitcase and go

(G) In the dim of the night
(G) In the (C) pale moon (G) light
(G) The wind it (D) howls and (G)moans
(G) These lonesome blues
(G) I (C) just can't (G) lose
(G) I'm blue I'm (D) lonesome (G) too

Repeat Chorus

Thanks. Bwll and Dale. Both are great songs. It is "Southern Moon" by the Delmore Brothers. I had heard this in a bluegrass version, done by someone initating Louie Armstrong, and it still sounded good!
Thanks again!!!!
