[Trumpet solo: Louis Armstrong]
[Verse 1: Ella Fitzgerald]
The tables are empty
The dance floor's deserted
You play the same love song
It's the tenth time you've heard it
That's the beginning
Just one of the clues
You've had your first lesson
In learnin' the blues
[Verse 2: Ella Fitzgerald]
The cigarettes you light
One after another
Won't help you forget him
And the way that you loved him
You're only burning
A torch you can't lose
But you're on the right track
For learnin' the blues
[Bridge: Ella Fitzgerald]
When you're at home alone
The blues will taunt you constantly
When you're out in a crowd
The blues will haunt your memory
[Verse 1: Ella Fitzgerald]
The tables are empty

You play the same love song
It's the tenth time you've heard it

[Verse 2: Ella Fitzgerald]
The cigarettes you light
One after another
Won't help you forget him
And the way that you loved him
You're only burning
A torch you can't lose
But you're on the right track
For learnin' the blues
[Bridge: Ella Fitzgerald]
When you're at home alone
The blues will taunt you constantly
When you're out in a crowd
The blues will haunt your memory
