[G]
[C]
[D] [G]
[C] [G] I'm just a singer a natural-born guitar [C] ringer
kind of [D] a clinger
Sad old [G] song
I'm not a walk behind
I'm a new note [Am] finder
But my name's a [D] reminder
Of a blues man that's already [G] gone
So I started drinking
To things that messed up my [C] thinking I was [D] sure sinking
when you came [G] along I
Was alone in the hot line
Not too [Am] much left inside
But she changed all [F#] that in [D] one night
She sang me [G] this song
[Bm] Hey, [Am] baby, [G] 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 so much in your life
running through [Am] the dark nights
Let 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 [D] keep
pleasing [C] all of my [G]
fans I
Got cuffed on dirt roads.
I
Got [Am] sued over no show
But she [C] came and [D] took all that old low down off this
[G]
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 30 years old now
Nights would be [Am] cold now
If you hadn't [D] stuck it out
with this [G] blues man
I'm 30 years old now
Night sure [Am] would be cold now
if you [D]
hadn't hung around
with this [G] blues man
