I noticed John Hartford tabs are really hard to find so here is H.H. Blues.
I'm not sure how correct it is, but it sounds pretty good to me.
Also, some of the lyrics are questionable, but this should be close.
Intro:
I wanna sing you a song about Vegas town and poor old Howard Hughes
Locked up there in his hotel suite trying to find his shoes
Well he's got so much to lose?
Old Howard Hughes and all his blues
His Nurses and his chauffeurs they stand around and sigh
Watch the door and wait on him whatever's on his mind
And that's a hell of a lot to do?
To guard old Howard Hughes and all his blues
Chorus:
And if he didn't have a nickel
If he didn't have a dime
He could do whatever he damn well please
He could do it all the time
But success is just a mess of overdue news (?) ?
For old Howard Hughes and all his blues
He's always in the papers he's always on the news
But no one knows whose Hughes are Who (?) Or even what's the truth
or who is getting screwed?
and it's them and you know who and all his blues
Way down yonder on the Vegas strip where the regular people pass
I heard some say he's not too well
I heard he's sinking fast
But those are unofficial sources to the news?
About poor old Howard Hughes and all his blues
Chorus:
And if he didn't have a nickel
If he didn't have a dime
He could do whatever he damn well please
He could do it all the time
But success is just a mess of overdue news (?) ?
For old Howard Hughes and all his blues
Now a bunch folks are writtin? books about him
And some of them are awful long
I didn't really have that much time so I thought I'd just write this song
Gotta get me in a few licks too?
About old Howard Hughes and all his blues
Chorus: (X2)
And if he didn't have a nickel
If he didn't have a dime
He could do whatever he damn well please
He could do it all the time
But success is just a mess of overdue news (?) ?
For old Howard Hughes and all his blues
