[Chords]
[verse 1]
F#m F#m7
Monday looked like a downer
F#m F#m7
Tuesday looked like rain
E
A bad altitude
B7 F#m
And I knew I needed a change
[Verse 2]
F#m F#m7
Head out on the highway
F#m F#m7
Cruising way down south
E
I knew a little place
B7 F#m
Where we might could work it all out
[Chorus 1]
D5 E F#m
I'm so tired of fighting with myself
B5 E F#m
Gonna spend a little time at the Tunica Motel
[Verse 3]
F#m F#m7
Just outside of Memphis,
F#m F#m7
Highway 61
E B7
Sleepy little town down by the
F#m
Mississippi River
[Verse 4]
F#m F#m7
I'm gonna lay out on a houseboat
F#m F#m7
Until my hide turns brown
E
Ain't gonna move 'till the
B7 F#m
Evening sun goes down
[Chorus 2]
D5 E F#m
Fried chicken to go and they got live bait for sale
B5 E F#m
Anything you need at the Tunica Motel
[Verse 5]
F#m F#m7
I find myself at midnight
F#m F#m7
Moving to the back porch blues
E B7
The guitar cries, telling me
F#m
About the hard times
[verse 6]
F#m F#m7
Something moves in the shadows
F#m F#m7
Giving me a little chill
E
I thought I saw Robert Johnson
B7 F#m
Walking out across the field
[chorus 3]
D5 E F#m
There ain't hardly anybody left who even knows the tale
B5 E F#m
Gimme the blues at the Tunica Motel
