x-------------------------------------------------------------- STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN - I'M CRYIN'. From TEXAS FLOOD album. Released 1983. -------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by:PJVillanueva Well now sittin' here so lonely feelin' oh so blue My baby's tryin' to mistreat me and I don't know what to do So I'm cryin' Why do I have to feel this way? If I can't love my baby I can't live another day Yeah I've loved her such a long time to end it all this way Sittin' here so lonely Tears be fallin' just like rain So I'm cryin' Why do I have to feel this way If I can't love my baby I can't live another day Yeah you know I love you baby I'll do anything for you But when we start to fightin' I just get these same old blues So I'm cryin' Why do I have to feel this way If I can't love my baby I can't live another day Yeah now when I first met you, baby at a dance 'n' we did fine Now we're together it's a total waste of time So I'm cryin' Why do I have to feel this way If I can't love you baby I can't live another day Well I guess it's just my own fault The truth I cannot hide But if I get you back dear I'll stay right by your side I won't be cryin' I'll stay happy that a way I'll be lovin' my little baby Every night and every day Tune your guitar a half step down If you want to match the recording. 12/8 e|-------- -------- --------
