I'm So Depressed

Abner Jay

This version is Abner's one-man-band version, found on countless modern repackagings of his work. It's not the full band version the circulates as "Depression." Note that throughout the entire song, Abner used arpeggiated chords. I'll leave it up to you whether you want to play it that way or otherwise. Opening: Verse 1: I was born during the hard depression day, oh my Lord In July, in South Georgia where the sun was hot as a blaze My folk was sharecroppers, At the end of the year We had nothing, we had nothing we had nothing, but grasshoppers Looking back, over my life Oh Lord, I'm so depressed Help me somebody, I need some rest Oh Lord, I'm so depressed Verse-Chorus Mix: Every boy needs a girl every girl needs a boy I'm a boy so full of love I have no one to hold my hand Tell me how long must I wander Tell me how long must I cry Verse 2: Will there be someone, someone to wipe, Dry the tear from my eye, come on baby, rub my head, Rub my head while I lay down in my bed, Kiss me, kiss me baby, 'Til I feel alright, 'til I feel alright Chorus: Oh, looking back over my life, Oh Lord, I'm so depressed, Help me somebody, I need some rest Slower, with tremolo effect rising Oh Lord, I'm so depressed...
