Blues Man chords by Alan Jackson

Chords with lyrics

G+G                     C majorC
He’s just a singer, a natural born guitar ringer
     D MajorD         G+G
Kind of a clinger to sad old songs
                     C majorC
He’s not a walk behinder, he’s a new note finder
         D MajorD      C majorC         D MajorD    G+G
But his names a reminder of a blues man that’s already gone
                               C majorC
So he started drinkin’, took some things that messed up his thinkin’
       D MajorD           G+G
He was sure sinkin’ when she came along
                       C majorC
He was alone in the spot light, not too much left in sight
           D MajorD                 G+G
She changed all that one night when she sang him this song…

(chorus)

G+G                A minorAm
Hey baby I love you, Hey baby I need you
       D MajorD            C majorC            G+G
Hey baby you ain’t got to prove to me you’re some kind of macho man
                            A minorAm
You’ve wasted so much of your life, runnin’ through the dark nights
            D MajorD      C majorC    D MajorD     G+G
Let me shine a little love light, down on that blues man.

G+G                               C majorC
He got so sick from speedin’, all the things they said he was needin’
           D MajorD          G+G
If he was to keep on pleasin’ all of his fans
                       C majorC
He got cuffed on dirt roads, he got sued over no shows
         D MajorD         C majorC            G+G
She came an took all that old load down off that old blues man

And he sang…

(chorus)

G+G                  A minorAm
Hey baby I love you too, Hey baby I need you
      D MajorD      C majorC         G+G
Hey baby I do get tired of this travelin’ band
                       A minorAm
I’m over forty years old now, nights would be cold now
        D MajorD              G+G
If you hadn’t stuck it out with this blues man
                         A minorAm
He’s over forty years old now, nights would be so cold now
        D MajorD              G+G
If she hadn’t hung around with that blues man.

(Solo)
