E E

We-e-e-e-ll, My woman left me and I’m so glad she did

A E

You know my old gal left me and I’m glad she took the kids

B E

Now I got less mouths to feed and more room to sleep in my bed

Chorus:

E

I got the good news blues, I’m smiling on a rainy day

A

I got the good news blues, I sung all my troubles away

B E

Aint got no aching bones, aint got no bills to pay

E

You see these politicians just tell you what they think we want to hear

A

You know it’s here one day and then it’s right out that other ear

B E

You know they promise us whiskey and won’t even give us a beer

Chorus

Instrumental solos

Chorus

Aint got no aching bones, aint got no bills I’m gonna pay
