Good News Blues

E                                                 E
We-e-e-e-ll, My woman left me and I?m so glad she did
            A                                         E
You know my old gal left me and I?m glad she took the kids
          B                                                E
Now I got less mouths to feed and more room to sleep in my bed

Chorus:
          E
I got the good news blues, I?m smiling on a rainy day
          A
I got the good news blues, I sung all my troubles away
            B                                  E
Aint got no aching bones, aint got no bills to pay

              E
You see these politicians just tell you what they think we want to hear
              A
You know it?s here one day and then it?s right out that other ear
              B                                           E
You know they promise us whiskey and won?t even give us a beer
