Start Jamming...
[G]
I could have been a gambler, playing with the cards.
I could have been a lover, breaking people's hearts.
[Am] But I feel so silly when I'm playing with the [C] dice.
And [G] a lover's never seen with the same girl twice.
[D] And that is [B] why, oh why [C] did I choose, [G] I chose to sing the blues.
Could have been a doctor, helping the sick.
I could have been a lawyer, but somehow that's not my stick.
[C] Because I feel so bad, if my patients [Bb] didn't get well.
[G] But I feel just as bad to leave a client in jail.
And [E] that is why, [B] oh yeah, why [C] did I choose, [D]
I chose to sing [G] the blues.
