This is a guitar and voice take on my arrangement of St. Louis Blues. It features a slightly different melody as well as a slightly slower pace from the other arrangement.

lyrics

I hate to see the evening sun go down
I hate to see the evening sun go down
Makes me think I’m on my last go ‘round

If I feel tomorrow like I feel today
If I feel tomorrow like I feel today
I’ll pack my bags and make my get away

Got them St. Louis blues, as blue as I can be
She got a heart like a rock, cast in the deep blue sea
Or else she wouldn’t go so far away from me

I hate to see the evening sun go down
I hate to see the evening sun go down
Makes me think I’m on my last go ‘round
Makes me think I’m on my last go ‘round
