[Verse 1]
Since you’ve been gone
I’ve been walking around
With my head bowed down to my shoes
I’ve been living the blues
Ev’ry night without you

[Verse 2]
I don’t have to go far (ah-ah)
To know where you are (ah-ah)
Strangers all give me the news
I’ve been living the blues (living the blues)
Ev’ry night without you

[Verse 3]
I think that it’s best
I soon get some rest
And forget my pride
But I can’t deny
This feeling that I
Carry for you deep down inside

[Verse 4]
If you see me this way (ah-ah)
You’d come back and you’d stay (ah-ah)
Oh, how could you refuse
I’ve been living the blues (living the blues)
Ev’ry night without you

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
I think that it’s best
I soon get some rest
And forget my pride
But I can’t deny
This feeling that I
Carry for you deep down inside

[Verse 4]
If you see me this way
You’d come back and you’d stay
Oh, how could you refuse
I’ve been living the blues (living the blues)
Ev’ry night without you

[Outro]
I’ve been living the blues (living the blues)
Ev’ry night without you
I’ve been living the blues (living the blues)
Ev’ry night without you

Bob Dylan (born Robert Zimmerman May 24, 1941), is an American singer-songwriter, writer, and artist who has influenced popular music and culture for more than five decades. Dylan has especially played a critical role in the American folk music revival.

Dylan’s songs are built from myriad political, social, philosophical and literary influences. Many of his anti-war and civil-rights-influenced songs set social unrest, as journalists widely named him the “spokesman for his generation” in the 1960s.

The musician has a signature change in voice and style in many different albums of his throughout the decades. He has notably explored and experimented with the genres of folk, rap, blues, and rock.
