[G]
[C]
[D] [G]
I'm just a singer, a natural born guitar ringer, kind of a [D] clinger.
[D] Sad old [G] song, I'm not a walk behind.
I'm a new note [Am] finder, but my name's a reminder
of a blues man that's [G] already gone.
So I started drinking, took things that messed [C] up my thinking.
I was [D] sure of sinking when you came [G] along.
I was alone in the hot lights, not too [Am] much left in sight.
But she changed all [D] that in one night when she sang me [G] this song.
Hey baby, I love you.
Hey baby, [Am] I need you.
Hey baby, [D] you ain't got to prove to me you're some kind of macho [G] man.
You wasted [D] so much of [G] your life running through [Am] the dark nights,
letting me shine [D] some love light down on the blues [G] man.
[C]
[G]
I got so sick from speeding, all the stuff they said I [C] was needing.
If I was to keep [D]
pleasing all of my [G]
fans, I got cuffed on dirt roads.
I got [Am] sued over no show, but she came and took [D]
all that old low
down off this [G] blues man.
Hey baby, I love you too.
Hey baby, [Am] I need you.
Hey baby, [D] I do get tired of this traveling [G] band.
I'm 30 years old now.
Nights would [Am] be cold now
if you [D] hadn't stuck it out [D] with this [G] blues man.
I'm 30 years old now.
Nights would [Am] be cold now
if you [D] hadn't hung around with this [G] blues man.
