If I Don't Be There By Morning (Just One Night)

B  E  B  E  B  E  B     a few times   (barre your index finger at the 7th fret: shortest way)

B   E   B   E   B   E          ----> same pattern as intro
Blue sky upon the horizon,
[B]Priv[E]ate [B]eye [E]is o[B]n my[E] trail,
       A        D       A        D   etc.      ----> same playing but on the 5th fret and not so many changings
And if I don't be there by morning
You know that [B]I mu[E]st h[B]ave [E]spen[B]t th[E]e ni[B]ght [E]in jail.

I got a woman livin' in L.A.
I got a woman waiting for my pay,
And if I don't be there by morning,
She'll know that I must have gone the other way.

[F#m]Finding my way back to [B]you girl,
Lonely and blue and mistreated t[E]oo.
[F#m]Sometimes I think of y[B]ou girl,
Is it tr[C]ue th[C#]at yo[F#]u think of me too?

Solo   over verse chord pattern

Finding my way back to you girl,
Lonely and blue, mistreated too.
Sometimes I think of you girl,
Is it true that you think of me too?

I left my woman with a twenty dollar bill.
I left her waiting, hope she's waiting for me still.
If I don't be there by morning
You know that I, I never will.

Key solo over verse chord pattern

If I don't be there by morning
You know that I, I never will.
I never will
I never will
I never will
I never will

applause and "Thankyou!"
