Well perhaps. I realise there’s a lot of competition. But this is my candidate (for now at least). Just four or five chords but it gets me every time. Jackson C. Frank only released one album, in 1965, but it featured a handful of songs that have been folk standards ever since. The ultimate in early hours bedsit misery. Also try his tune Milk and Honey, if you can face it.

I bought a copy of this after hearing it here first. Beautifully simple, although I try not to listen to if I’m having a bad day!
Thanks for introducing us.

Hello Calum - yes, he creates quite an atmosphere. His self-titled (and only) album is also worth checking out: has quite a few fine songs.
