Verse 1.
I got the Cblues from my baby down Fby the San Francisco C, C7Bay,
(Where) the Focean liners, they aren't so far aC, C7way.
I Fdidn't mean to treat her so bad, she was the Cbest girl I run1ever have Ahad,
DSaid goodbye, had to take a cry (?), G7I wanna lay down and die.
I Cain't got a nickel and I Fain't got a lousy dime.C, C7
If she Fdon't come back, I think I'm gonna lose my E7mind.
If I Fever get back to stay, it's Cgonna be anotherfill brand new Aday,
DWalkin' with my baby down G7by the San Francisco C, G7Bay.
)
Sittin' down lookin' from my back door, wondrin' which way to go,
The woman I'm so crazy about, she don't love me no more.
Think I'll catch me a freight train, 'cause I'm feelin' blue,
I'll ride all the way to the end of the line, thinkin' only of you.
Meanwhile, livin' in the city, thinkin' I'll go insane,
Thought I heard my baby's voice, the way she used to call my name.
If I ever get back to stay, it's gonna be another brand new day,
Walkin' with my baby down by the San Francisco Bay, hey hey,
Walkin' with my baby down by the San Francisco Bay,
Yeah, walkin' with my baby down by the San Francisco Bay.
(Ends on a C7)
