SOMEDAY, AFTER A WHILE
Freddie King, Sonny Thompson
(Arrangement from Eric Clapton’s CD: “From The Cradle”)
INTRO (Solo on verse)
[G7/G#]
VERSE 1
I got to ride, that lonesome train
My heart is heavy, [G7/G#]with aches and pains
I said but someday, someday baby
After a while, you will be sorry
VERSE 2
Every day, my clouds are gray
Takes you to roll, [G7/G#]all those clouds away
I said but someday, someday baby
after a while, you will be sorry
CHORUS
Trouble trouble, trouble on my mind
Trouble trouble, way down the line
I don’t need, I don’t need no sympathy
So babe, babe, don’t you, don’t you pity me
VERSE 3
I may be blue, but I don’t mind
Because I know, [G7/G#]way down the line
I said someday, someday baby
after a while, you will be sorry
(Solo on two verses and end)
