[C] He [Eb] wasn't famous but I sure [Bb] did love him
lost his life to a big [Bb] disease
[Fm] there's so many more and [Bb] I've lost count
[F] All that matters is they came [Bb] around and brightened up [Eb] our lives
was 21 [Bb] with her life ahead
breathed her last on the cold [Bb] stone floor
[Fm] fate's right hand [Bb] isn't always just
[F] She was just a little girl, ain't [Bb] that enough to rage against [Eb] the day?

_ _ _ _ [C] _ _ He [Eb] wasn't famous but I sure [Bb] did love him
I [Eb] got his picture in a little frame
He lost his life to a big [Bb] disease
[Ab] Before it even had [Eb] a name
But [Fm] there's so many more and [Bb] I've lost count
[Gm] The house and wife are [Cm] important now
[F] All that matters is they came [Bb] around and brightened up [Eb] our lives
She was 21 [Bb] with her life ahead
[Ab] You don't need to know [Eb] her name
She breathed her last on the cold [Bb] stone floor
[Ab] Of a Hollywood [Eb] arcade
But [Fm] fate's right hand [Bb] isn't always just
[Gm] Puts a lot of pressure [Cm] on your faith and trust
[F] She was just a little girl, ain't [Bb] that enough to rage against [Eb] the day? _ _
[Ab] And how did we get so [Eb] lucky?
[Bb] Target's on the rifle [Cm] range
[Ab] Who makes the call and [Eb] who gets to choose?
[Bb] Who gets to win and [Cm] who gets to lose?
It's [Ab] like we're rolling dice in [Eb] the belly of the blues
[G] And blues never fade [Cm] away
[Eb] Hey, hey, hey
[Ab] Colors run when [Eb] rain falls
[G] But blues never fade [Cm] away _
He _ shone [Eb] so bright with a lust [Bb] for life
[Eb] Like the sun king daddy was
His passions hung upon [Bb] his walls
[Ab] And were printed [Eb] onto cloth
[Fm] And for reasons I [Bb] never understood
[Gm] About the choices made [Cm] between the bad and good
I've [F] tried to figure out why [Bb] the pain never goes away
_ [Eb] _ [Ab] And how did we get [Eb] so lucky? _

[G] And blues never fade [Cm] away
[Eb] Hey, hey, hey
[Ab] Colors run when [Eb] rain falls
[G] But blues never fade [Cm] _ away
[G] And there's marble markers [Cm] and little white crosses
[Gm] Along the beaten [Cm] path
[Ab] And I spread that ice [Eb]-sist on the wind
[Bb] And I met John [Cm] Levin's wife _ _ _ _ _
_ [Ab] And how did we get [Eb] so lucky?
