[Intro]

Cadd9  Gsus4  Cadd9  Gsus4

[Verse]

         C6/9                            F/G
I've got a blue motel room with a blue bedspread
   Eb/F                                F13
I've got the blues inside and outside my head
Db/Eb                              Eb13
     Will you still love me
             F/G                           C6/9   F/G
When I call you up when I'm down

[Verse]

C6/9                             F/G
Here in Savannah it's pouring rain
Eb/F                                               F13
Palm trees in the porch light like slick black cellophane
Db/Eb                                Eb13
       Will you still love me
            F/G                               C6/9
When I call you up when I get back to town

[Bridge]

Bbmaj7
I know that you've got all those pretty girls coming on
F/G                                             G13
Hanging on your boom-boom-pachyderm
Eb/F                                                         F13
Will you tell those girls that you've got German Measles
                                             C6/9
Honey, tell them you've got germs
F/G
I hope you'll be thinking of me
              G13
Because I'll be thinking of you
Ab/Bb                      Bb13
While I'm traveling home alone
Db/Eb                               Eb13          F/G
Tell those girls that you've got Joni
                               C6/9    F/G
She's coming back home

[Instrumental]

C6/9    F/G    Eb/F    F13
Db/Eb    Eb13    F/G    C6/9

[Verse]

C6/9                    F/G
I've got road maps from two dozen states
          Eb/F                    F13
I've got coast to coast just to contemplate
Db/Eb                                Eb13
       Will you still love me
F/G                          C6/9
When I get back to town

[Verse]

C6/9                                              F/G
It's funny how these old feelings hang around
Eb/F                                  F13
You think they're gone, no, no, they just go underground
Db/Eb                         Eb13
Will you still love me
F/G                         C6/9
When I get back to L.A town

[Bridge]

Bbmaj7
You and me, we're like America and Russia
F/G                               G13
We're always keeping score
Eb/F                                       F13
We're always balancing the power
                                        C6/9
And that can get to be a cold cold war
F/G                                                          G13
We're going to have to hold ourselves a peace talk
Ab/Bb       Bb13
In some neutral café
Db/Eb                      Eb13                                 F/G
You lay down your sneaking round the town honey
                   C6/9
And I'll lay down the highway

[Outro]

                Cadd9
I've got a blue motel room with a blue bedspread
                        Gsus4
I've got the blues inside and outside my head
Gsus4                                                                    Cadd9
   Will you still love me when I get back to town?
