Nobody Knows But Me by Jimmie Rodgers
NOBODY KNOWS BUT ME
JIMMIE RODGERS
VERSE 1:
C A7
Nobody knows 'bout the jailhouse blues,
D7 G7 C
Till you get within four walls,
C A7
And the old jailer man turns that big black key,
D7 G7
That's when your spirit falls.
C C7
Then you drag yourself up to the bars
F G7 C
and while you gaze out at the stars
G7 D7 G
this is what you say...
CHORUS:
C A7
Why did I stray from the righteous path,
D7 G7 C
Nobody knows but me,
C A7
There on the outside you all can laugh,
D7 G7
I don't need your sympathy.
C C7
For after I've paid for the liquor I sold,
F G7 C
I'll leave this place worth my weight in gold.
A7 D7
So why did I stray from the righteous path,
G7 C
Nobody knows but me.
C G7 C
Nobody knows but me.
VERSE 2:
C A7
When you realize that you're all alone,
D7 G7 C
Sitting in a two by four
C A7
that little cell is just a taste of hell,
D7 G7
If you ain't been there before.
C C7
You are locked up tight, but they treat you fair.
F G7 C
You get ev'rything that you need in there
G7 D7 G
that's just why you say...
CHORUS:
C A7
Why did I stray from the righteous path,
D7 G7 C
Nobody knows but me,
C A7
There on the outside you all can laugh,
D7 G7
I don't need your sympathy.
C C7
For after I've paid for the liquor I sold,
F G7 C
I'll leave this place worth my weight in gold.
A7 D7
So why did I stray from the righteous path,
G7 C
Nobody knows but me.
C G7 C
Nobody knows but me.
