[Db] We love you so much, ladies and gentlemen.
[Bbm]
I tell you, I got another little song I want to lay on you,
and it says, makes no difference how much money you got.
[Db] [Bbm] You even got this?
Still got problems, go to the psychiatrist,
try to solve them, [Eb] pain anywhere you look at,
[F]
it's still [Bbm] color blue.
All right now, baby need new shoes,
mama need a new vest.
Daddy just stops coupling, he's trying to do his best,
[Eb] pain anywhere you look at.
What is it [F] called?
You see, [Bbm] that's right.
All right now, [Fm] makes no difference [Ab] what you do outside,
the blues might [Bbm] still, might still come your way.
Just [Fm] when you think your problems [Db] are found here,
[Eb] I know something, [C] I start it all [F] over again.
[Bbm] Party one [Db] Saturday, and you [Bbm] go to church on Sunday,
finally if you recall, [Ab] you got to go back to [Bbm] work on Monday,
[Db] [Eb] pain anywhere you look at.
What is it called?
[F]
[Bbm] I like that part there.
You got it, son.
Yeah.
[Eb] [F]
[Bbm]
[Fm] [Ab]
[Fm] [Ab]
[C] and started [F] all over [Db] again.
[Bbm] You're gonna touch on Sunday, Sunday,
because you got to go back to work on Monday.
Hey, [Eb] anyway you look at it, what is culture?
[F]
It's still, [Bbm] that's what I'm talking about.
Anyway you look at it, yeah, it's [Eb] still called the [Db] blues.
Uh-huh, you try [Eb] to go to work, yeah, [F]
it's still [Bbm] called the blues.
I think I'll do that verse one more time.
Baby need new shoes, mama need a new dress,
daddy can't stop scuffling, he's trying to do his best.
Hey, [Eb] anyway you look at it, what is still called?
[F] Huh?
[Bbm] Sometimes you think about it, you know what it says?
[F]
Still called the blues, [Db] ain't that right?
[Bbm] [Bb]
