I don't know the EC Same ole blues, but the chords to JJ Cale tune (also covered by Skynyrd) called I got the same old blues are floating around the net, here for example: http://www.guitaretab.com/j/jj-cale/283227.html

I don't think that's the song he is looking for.
The song he mend is
Same old blues Lyrics

Morning rain keeps on falling
Like the tears that fall from my eyes
As I sit in my room
Staring out at the gloom
It's the rain, it's the same old blues

I can't help, I can't help but thinking
When the sun used to shine on my back door
Now the sun is turned to rain
All my laughter is turned to pain
Yes it's the pain of the same old blues

(instrumental intermission)

Sunshine, sunshine is all you see now
But it all, it all looks like clouds to me
When I sit in my room
Staring out at the gloom
It's the rain, it's the same old blues
Yeah, yes it's the rain, it's the same old blues
Yeah, yes it's the rain, it's the same old blues

The chords are
I'll try from my memory:

Intro: F+

D F#7 Bm D F#7 Bm Am7 D7(9)

G G#o D Bm E7 A7 D F+

and it goes on over and over...

Awesome song!

Is that Freddie Kings lyrics?

Hih, hih this is really confusing 'cause of the song names are so close one another :think:
This should be the beginning of the EC's song:

I'm sorry baby, but I can't afford to stay.
Your good, kind treatment will worry me someday.

I love you baby, but I'm gonna have to say goodbye.
Woman, I got to move, I really got to fly.

Same thing every morning,
Tell me what's it all about.
I get those same old blues every night.

I miss you already, baby, more than words can say.
Seems like I've been gone twenty-four hours, more like a million days.
I love you baby, you know I woudn't tell you no lies.
If you don't believe I love you, look at the tears standing in my eyes... etc


Despite the similarities in blues song names, nose against the wind and push on :lefty: :big_smile:
