Five Long Years

Five Long Years
words and music by Eddie Boyd
Key of Eb, cross harp-Ab
slow blues

-4 -5 6 -5 6 -5 6 -7
If you've ever been mistreated

-2 -3' 4 -4 -3 -2 2 -2
you know what I'm talking a -bout,

6 6 -7 6 -4 4 -3 -2
If you ever been mistreated

-2 -3' 4 -4 4 -3 -2 2 -2
You know just what I'm talking about,

(chorus)

-3 -3 -4 5 -5 -4 5 5 -4
I worked five long years for one woman,

-2 -2 -3' -2 -5 -4 4 -3' -2
And she had the nerve to put me out.
