Into: A D7 A E A 


 A 
yes i hid your car keys, honey 
 D                A 
yes i hid your suitcase 

and i'm the reason you can't find 
       E 
your makeup and your toothpaste 
     A 
and i'll do anything it takes 
     D                A 
to keep you here with me 
       B 
but losing you's a sure way 
        E 
to set off my allergies 

Chorus: 
      A 
I'm allergic to the blues 
                D            A 
i get these teardrops in my eyes 

you know i've always had a bad 
  E 
reaction to goodbyes 
          A 
So 'till they find some injection 
     D              A 
to calm that love rejection 
                                B     D 
all i've got to save me now is you 
             E               A 
'cause I'm allergic to the blues 


instrumental: repeat intro 


it wont be five minutes 
       D                  A 
after you walk out that front door 

'till i'll be fightin' for my breath and 
  E 
feelin' like i'm done for 
       A 
well they might find me froze to death 
D            A 
in our bed alone 
    B 
now do you really want that 
         E 
on your conscience while your gone 

Chorus: 
      A 
I'm allergic to the blues 
             D               A 
i get these teardrops in my eyes 

you know i've always had a bad 
  E 
reaction to goodbyes 
          A 
So 'till they find some injection 
    D               A 
to calm that love rejection 
                                B     D 
all i've got to save me now is you 
      E               A      D        
I'm allergic to the blues 
      E               A 
I'm allergic to the blues
