Everyday Blues
Words and Music by: Thomas A. Buechi

Well I woke up late this mornin’
My baby left me high and dry
She said she’s leavin’ on the next plane
Didn’t even stop to tell me why
I asked her where you going now
She said “Anywhere that plane will fly”
It’s not your everyday blues
Not your everyday blues

Well, she left me with a toothbrush
And the bills all overdue
I tried to talk her into stayin’
But there was nothin’ I could do
Used to think that I could live without that girl
Really thought that I could choose
It’s not your everyday blues
Not your everyday blues

Well, I walked down to the corner
Got myself a pack of smokes
Don’t know why I came to LA
But I had nowhere else to go
I keep thinkin’ she still loves me
But I know that just ain’t so
It’s not your everyday blues
Not your everyday blues

Well, If I had to do it all again
I think I’d make the same mistake
I’d get so tired of hidin’
I wouldn’t care what was at stake
I’d fall for her again
Oh what’s it gonna take?
To lose these everyday blues
I’ve got those everyday blues.
