[G] [D]
[C] [G] I'm just a singer, a natural born guitar [C] ringer, kind of [D] a clinger.
Sad [G] old song, I'm not a walk behind.
I'm a new [Am] note finder, but my name's [D] a reminder,
of a blues man that's already [G] gone.
So I started drinking, took things that messed up my [C] thinking,
I was [D] sure of sinking.
When you came [G] along, I was alone in the hot lights,
not too much [Am] left inside, but she changed all that [D] in one night,
when she sang me this [G] song.
Hey [Am] baby I [G] love you, hey baby I [Am] need you,
hey baby you [D] ain't got to prove to me you're some kind of macho [G] man.
You wasted so much of your life, running through [Am] the dark nights,
letting me shine [D] some love light, down on the [G] blues man.
[C]
[G]
I got so sick from speeding, all the stuff they said I [C] was needing,
if I was to [D] keep pleasing, all [G] of my fans,
I got cuffed on dirt roads.
I got [Am] sued over no show, but she came and took [D] all that old load,
down off this blues [G] man.
Hey [C] baby [G] I love you too, hey baby [Am] I need you,
hey baby [D] I do get tired of this traveling [G] band.
I'm thirty years old now, nights would be [Am] cold now,
if you hadn't [D] stuck it out with this [G] blues man.
I'm thirty years old now, nights sure would be [Am] cold now,
if you [D] hadn't hung around with this [G] blues man.
