[E] [A]
I'm just a singer, a natural born guitar [D] ringer, kind of [E] a clinger to sad [A] old songs.
I'm not a walk behind her, I'm a new [Bm] note finder, but my name's a [E] reminder of a blues man that's already [A] gone.
So I started drinking, took some things that messed up [D] my thinking, I was [E] sure sinking when she came [A] along.
I was alone in the spotlight, not too much [Bm] left in sight, she changed all [E] that one night when she sang me [A] this song.
Hey baby I love you, hey baby I [Bm] need you, hey baby [E] you don't approve to me, you're some kind [A] of macho man.
You've wasted [D] so [A] much of your life running through [Bm] the [F#m]
night, [Bm] let me shine a [E] little love light down on you [A] blues man.
[D]
[A]
I got sick from speeding, all the things they said I was [D] needing, if I was to keep [E] on pleasing all of [A] my fans.
I got cuffed on dirt roads, I got sued [Bm] over no shows, [D] she came and took [E] all that old load down off of this blues [A] man.
[B] And [A] I sang, hey baby I love you too, hey baby [Bm] I need you too, hey baby [E] I do get tired of this traveling [A] bad.
Oh [E] I'm [Bm] up in [A] my years now, nights would be [Bm] so cold now, if you [E] hadn't stuck it out with this [A] blues man.
[E] Oh I'm [Bm] up in [A] my years now, nights would be [Bm] so cold now, if you hadn't [E] hung around.
