[Gm]
life can be mighty monotonous,
[Gm]
We're always battlin' boredom;
[Gm]
Where, tell me where has it gotten us?
[Cm]
Everything's still so doggone hum-drum!
[Gm] [Eb] [Dm]
Stuck in a rut, gettin' nowhere fast!
[Gm] [Bb] [Eb] [D]
Mmmm-mmm, I got the hum-drum blues!
[Gm] [C] [D]
Fightin' the future and mad at the past!
[Gm] [Bb] [Eb]
Mmmm-mmm, I got the hum-drum blues!
[D]
Ooh honey,
[C]
When you ain't got money,
[C]
Then you just can't do as you choose;
[D] [Gm] [Eb]
Just gotta live with the hum-drum blues!
[F] [Gm] [Eb]
[Gm]
Don't know which way I'm goin',
[Gm]
I don't know which way I come from?
[Gm]
Rainin', a shine or a-snowin',
[Gm]
Everything's so doggone hum-drum!
F Gm,
Love me honey, I wish you would!
[Bb] [D]
Uh-huh, I got the hum-drum blues!
[Gm] [Eb] [D]
Sure would do me a world o' good,
[Bb] [Eb]
'Cause I've got the blues!
[Gm]
Oooh baby,
[C]
If you love me, maybe
[Cm]
we could get together and lose
[D] [Gm] [Eb] [Cm] [Gm] [F] [D]
These mean old, mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm, a-humdrum blues!
