  C                                                     G

I gave my last chance to you; don't hand it back to me, Bitterblue, no, Bitterblue.

Yes, I've done all one man can do; don't pass me up oh Bitterblue, my Bitterblue.

D                          G         C                  A    D

'Cause I've been running a long time on this travelling ground.

Wishing hard to be free of going round and round.

    D                  G              C           F   C   D

Yes I've been moving a long time, but only up and do--ow--wn.

 

I gave my last hope to you; don't hand it back to me Bitterblue, my Bitterblue.

I've done all one man can do; please help me lose this Bitterblue, my Bitterblue.

 

Cause I've been waiting a long time; aeons been and gone.

Looking at the horizon for my light to dawn.

Oh, yes, I've been living a long time, looking on and on.

I've been running a long time, summers come and gone.

Drifting under the dream clouds, past the broken sun.

Yes I've been living a long time to be back beyo--oo--ond.

 

I gave my last chance to you; don't hand it back Bitterblue, my Bitterblue.

I've done all one man can do, don't pass me up oh, Bitterblue.

My Bitterblue, Bitterblue.

I gave my last chance to you; don't hand it back to me Bitterblue.
