Another new song, with a wonderfully original title! Comments very welcome. Sorry the sound quality isn't better. Guitar tuned to open D.

It's four in the morning
And the train's going west
I'm falling asleep now
For to take my rest

I got mud on my shoes
I got the lonesome blues

My thoughts are tracking back and forth
And my minds in spin
With all things I could've done
If only I were wiser then

So I pull of my shoes
Still got the lonesome blues

I walk along, alone outside
Hearing echoes in the breeze
Lights around are growing dim
Laughter's flowing easily

I ain't got nothing to lose
'Cept these lonesome blues

She's standing there in a blue-white dress
Across the smoky room
Thought it was I who knew her best
Well, I guess I spoke too soon

Tell me, why'd I choose you?
I got the lonesome blues
