[C]
[D]
[G] He's just a singer, a natural born guitar [C] ringer, kind of [D] a clinger to sad [G] old songs.
He's not a walk behind her, he's a new note [A] [Am] finder.
His name's a [D] reminder of a blues man that's already [G] gone.
So he started drinking, took some things that messed up [C] his thinking.
He was [D] sure as sinkin', but she [G] came along.
He was alone in the spotlight, not too [Am] much left inside.
She changed all [D] that one night when she sang him [G] this song.
[D] 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've wasted so much of your life running through [Am] the dark night.
Let me shine [D] a little love light down on that blues [G] man.
[C]
[G] He got so sick from speeding, all the things they said he was [C] needing.
If he is to keep [D] on pleasing all of [G] his fans, he got cupped on dirt roads.
He got sued over [Am] no shows.
She came and took [D] all that old load down off that blues [G] man.
And he sang, hey baby, I love you too.
Hey baby, [Am] I need you.
[Am] Hey baby, I [D] do get tired of this traveling [G] band.
I'm [D] over 40 [G] years old now.
Nights would [Am] be cold now.
If you hadn't [D] stuck it out with this [G] blues man.
He's over 40 years old now.
Nights would be [Am] so cold now.
If she [D] hadn't hung around with that [G] blues man.
