Verse 1
Well, she's (E minor)

With (B major) yesterday's deliveries
And (B flat minor) tickets for (B flat major) bachelors

(C major) From her (F sharp minor) conk down to her (B major) shoes
(E minor) But she's just an invitation (C major)
(B major) to the (E minor) blues

Verse 2
But you (A minor) feel like cagney
And she (D major) looks like Rita Hayworth
At the (G major) counter of the Schwab's drugstore
(B major) You wonder (A minor) if she might be single
(G sharpaug) She's (D major) a loner, likes to mingle
(G major) Got to be patience,
(B major) try to pick up a clue
She says (E minor) how you gonna (C major) like'em
Medium or scrambled?
(G major) Any (B major) way is the (G major) only way
(B major) Be (B flatdim) careful not to (G minor) gamble (Gdim)
(A minor) On a guy with a suitcase
And a (F sharp minor) ticket getting (B major) out here
It's (E minor) tired bus station
And (C major) an old pair of shoes
(F sharp minor) Ain't noth (B major) ing but an invitation
(E minor) to the blues
(C major) (B major) (E minor)
Verse 3
(C major) (B major)
(A minor) But you can't take your eyes off her (E major)
(D major) Get another cup of java
And it's just (G major) the way she
pours it for you
Joking with the custom (D major) ers
Oh (A minor) mercy, Mr. Percy!
There ain't (D major) nothing back in jersey
But (G major) a broken down jalopy
Of a (B major) man I left behind
And a (E minor) dream that I was chasing
A (C major) battle with booze
(F sharp minor) An open invitation (B major) to the blues
Interlude 1
(E minor) (B major) (A major) (E minor) (C major) (Edim) (C major)
(G major) (B major) (B flatdim) (B flat minor) (B flatdim) (A minor) (F sharp minor) (B major)
(E minor) (C major) (B major) (E minor)
Verse 4
Ah, but she's (A minor) had a sugar daddy
And a (D major) candy apple caddy
A (G major) bank account and everything
Accustomed to the finer thing (D major) s
He (A minor) left her for a (G sharpaug) socialite
He (C major) didn't love her except (D major) at night
And (G major) then he's drunk
And never even (B major) told her that he cared
So she (E minor) took the registration
(C major) Car keys and her shoes
(F sharp minor) Left with an in (B major) vitation to
the blues
(E minor) (C major) (B major) (E minor)
Verse 5
(C major) (B major)
Now there's (A minor) continental trailways leaving
(D major) Local bus tonight, good evening
(G major) You can have my seat
I'm sticking round here for a while (B major)
Get a (A minor) room at squire
The filling station's (D major) hiring
And (G major) I can (D major) cat here every night
(B major) What the hell have I got to lose
Got a (E minor) crazy sensation
Go or (C major) stay, I gotta choose
(F sharp minor) I'll accept your in (B major) vitation (E minor) to the
blues (D major)
