E     G   A

E
Room 57 in the midnight hour,
D                A                               E
I'm fresh out of coffee and the cream turned sour.
E
I'm thinkin' 'bout the people I've been talkin' to,
D                         A           E
Been here a long time and nobody knew.
B
Ain't it shame, ain't it a pity,
     A               G             E
The bluebird's gone from the windy city.
E                           G A
What a shame, what a shame,
E                           G A
What a shame, what a shame.
E
Good music on the radio,
D                    A                E
A whole lotta people don't wanna know.
E
They say that black is black and white is white,
D                               A                 E
You can't cross over 'cause it don't seem right.
B
Ain't it shame, ain't it a pity,
     A               G             E
The bluebird's gone from the windy city.
E                           G A
What a shame, what a shame,
E                           G A
What a shame, what a shame.

{Rod - Solo} - G  A  E  x 4

B
Ain't it shame, ain't it a pity,
     A               G             E
The bluebird's gone from the windy city.
E                           G A
What a shame, what a shame,
E                           G A
What a shame, what a shame.
