lyrics:
Ringo: One...Two...Three
E
Yes I'm lonely wanna die
A E
Yes I'm lonely wanna die
G
If I ain't dead already
B7 E A E B7
Ooh girl you know the reason why.
In the morning wanna die
In the evening wanna die
If I ain't dead already
Ooh girl you know the reason why.
Bridge:
E A E
My mother was of the sky
E A E
My father was of the earth
E A E
But I am of the universe
And you know what it's worth

A E
I'm lonely wanna die
G
If I ain't dead already
B7 E A E B7
Ooh girl you know the reason why.
The eagle picks my eye
The worm he licks my bone
I feel so suicidal
Just like Dylan's Mr. Jones
Lonely wanna die
If I ain't dead already
Ooh girl you know the reason why.
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/b/beatles/yer_blues_tab.html ]
Black cloud crossed my mind
Blue mist round my soul
Feel so suicidal
Even hate my rock and roll
(swing beat)
Wanna die yeah wanna die
If I ain't dead already
Ooh girl you know the reason why.
