That's a Muddy Waters [E] song saying I got a black cat [D] ball and I got a_
_ _ it's black.
I got it.
_ [F#] _ _ _
And to be _ _ _ in company like [A#m] this tonight, _ _ _ I'm just out of words.
I just want to play for you.

_ _ _ Look at this. _
_ _ _ _ [Cm] To be standing here and got to [C#m] pick up a guitar and get between these two [C] guys and play,
man, you got to be me to [D] know how I feel tonight, man.
You know, _ this [F#] _ _
_ _ _ [C#] is no small task
and I'm just happy and I want to thank _ _
_ [N] _ Mr.
West and _ _ Silvertone and the record company for putting up with my shit.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
I haven't made _ a lot of records that make a lot of money, but I make a lot of records that _ _ if you ever listen to it,
there's something I say might fit you, _ like you damn right I got the blues. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [B] I remember, Eric, when we came out of Australia [F] and you had a rock _ _ awards here in New York and we had Bo Diddley
[B] and somebody asked him what [A#m] was the blues _ _ and _ he said [B] Mr.
Donald Trump got the [C#] blues.
I said to myself, wait a minute, you got to explain this.
He said, yeah, he got the blues because he [D] got to keep it
and I got the [G#] blues because I got to get it.
_ _ _ _ And that's been sticking with me ever since.
If you don't think you got the blues, just keep living. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[D] And if you don't think you get drunk,
just keep drinking what you're drinking and thinking what [N] you're thinking. _
Ladies and gentlemen, I'm going to play a little [E] blues for you, all right? _
