[Intro]

[Verse 1]
  C           Fm6                   C
I got my back to the sun ’cause the light is too intense
C              Fm6       C
I can see what everybody in the world is up against
    Am                  Em                   Am                Em   G7
You can’t turn back—you can’t come back, sometimes we push too far
C              Fm6                   C
One day you’ll open up your eyes and you’ll see where we are

[Chorus]
Fsus4/C           F/C
Sugar Baby get on down the road
          Fm/C              C
You ain’t got no brains, no how
Fsus4/C            F/C
You went years without me
              Fm/C       C
Might as well keep going now

[Interlude]
| C | Fm6 | C | C |

[Verse 2]
C             Fm6          C
Some of these bootleggers, they make pretty good stuff
C                    Fm6                C
 Plenty of places to hide things here if you wanna hide ’em bad enough
Am                     Em    Am                                 Em   Gsus4
 I’m staying with Aunt Sally, but you know, she’s not really my aunt
C                       Fm6                       C
 Some of these memories you can learn to live with and some of them you can’t

[Chorus]
Fsus4/C           F/C
Sugar Baby get on down the road
          Fm/C              C
You ain’t got no brains, no how
Fsus4/C            F/C
You went years without me
              Fm/C       C
Might as well keep going now

[Verse 3]
C                  Fm6      C
The ladies down in Darktown, they’re doing the Darktown Strut
C                 Fm6             C
 You always got to be prepared but you never know for what
Am              Em            Am                     Em    G7
 There ain’t no limit to the amount of trouble women bring
C                  Fm6              C
  Love is pleasing, love is teasing, love’s not an evil thing

[Chorus]
Fsus4/C           F/C
Sugar Baby get on down the road
          Fm/C              C
You ain’t got no brains, no how
Fsus4/C            F/C
You went years without me
              Fm/C       C
Might as well keep going now

[Verse 4]
      C          Fm6            C
Every moment of existence seems like some dirty trick
C             Fm6               C
 Happiness can come suddenly and leave just as quick
Am         Em          Am               Em     G7sus4
 Any minute of the day the bubble could burst
C                                  Fm6   
 Try to make things better for someone, 
                          C
Sometimes, you just end up making it a thousand times worse

[Chorus]
Fsus4/C           F/C
Sugar Baby get on down the road
          Fm/C              C
You ain’t got no brains, no how
Fsus4/C            F/C
You went years without me
              Fm/C       C
Might as well keep going now

[Verse 5]
C                Fm6                C
Your charms have broken many a heart and mine is surely one
C                Fm6                     C
You got a way of tearing the world apart. Love, see what you done
Am                    Em     Am                      Em    G7sus4
Just as sure as we’re living, just as sure as you’re born
C                   Fm6                                       C
 Look up, look up — seek your Maker — ’fore Gabriel blows his horn

[Chorus]
Fsus4/C           F/C
Sugar Baby get on down the line
          Fm/C              C
You ain’t got no brains, no how
Fsus4/C            F/C
You went years without me
              Fm/C       C
Might as well keep going now
