The Band – Orange Juice Blues (Blues For Breakfast) lyrics

Album: Music from Big Pink

D7 G7 C7
I had a hard time waking this morning
G7 D7
I got a lotta things on my mind
C7
Like those friends of yours
F7
They keep bringing me down
Bb7 D7
Just hangin' round all the time

I've had a hard time waking most mornings
And it's been that way for a month or more
You've had things your way
But now I've got to say
I'm on my way out the door

Chorus:
(NC) D7
Why don't you get right, try to get right, baby
C7 Bb7 A7
You haven't been right with me, why don't you get right?
D7
Try and get right, baby, don't you remember how it used to be?

(Solos like verses (2), repeat chorus)

You had a hard time waking this morning
And I can see it in your empty eyes
But there's no need for talking
Or walking round the block
Just to figure out the reason why

I have a hard time handing out warnings
I'll just slide on out the door
Cuz I'm tired of everything
Being beautiful, beautiful
And I ain't coming back no more

(Repeat chorus, solos like verses (2), chorus fade...)
