[Verse 1]
C G
Same old room, same old town,
D G
same old man along with a frown.
C G
Day old bread, day old snow,
D G
day old sheets got me feeling low.
[Chorus]
D C G
Sometimes I sleep in my shoes,
D C G
sometimes I get these Motel Blues.
[Verse 2]
C G
Lock up that door, lock up my mind,
D G
lock up that thief, he’s in 309.

These walls are thin, yeah, but these walls are mine;
D G
thank God these walls they do confine.
[Chorus]
D C G
Sometimes I sleep in my shoes,
D C G G
sometimes I get these Motel Blues.

C G
She’s made to order, she’s made for fun;
D G
the maid she wants us out by one.
C G
Check out time, hey, check out these,
D G
sometimes my life it brings me to my knees.
[Chorus]
D C G
Sometimes I sleep in my shoes,
D C G
sometimes I’m just spreading the news.
[Outro]
D C
Sometimes, baby, I just lit the fuse,
D C G
sometimes I get these Motel Blues.
D C G G
Sometimes I get these Motel Blues.
