Angina Blues --- Bob Clevenger



~Vamp on [A]~

Woke [E]up this early mornin’ with a pain down in my chest,
I took a hit of nitro ‘cause I [E7]thought it would be best,
I got the [A]Blues -- the Angina Pectoralis Blues,
And I’m [D]feelin' kinda weary from my [A]head down [E]to my [A]shoes.


I [E]planned to go out early and have myself some fun,
But old Angina spoke to me, said: [E7]“Change your plans old son.”
It’s just the [A]Blues, the Angina Pectoralis Blues.
You [D]know your life is changin’ and you’ve [A]got to pay some [E]long-lost [A]dues.


[E]Nitro pill is workin’ and I’m thinkin’ I’m not dead
But just in case I’m wrong (ya know), I’ll [E7]stay right here in bed.
I’ve got those [A]Blues – those Angina Pectoralis Blues,
I [D]guess I must be winnin’ ‘cause I [A]ain’t got [E]much to [A]lose.


[E]Old Angina’s with me; he ain’t never far behind,
If I give him half a chance he’s sure to [E7]get me in a bind.
I got the [A]Blues, the Angina Pectoralis Blues,
But it ain’t [D]over ‘til it’s over, so I’ll [A]live the [E]life I [A]choose.
