I Guess That's Why They Call It The Blues
Elton John 1983 (Elton John, Davey Johnstone, Bernie Taupin)

C majorC G+G FF 2x

G+G
Don't wish it away
       FF         C majorC  FF C majorC FF C majorC FF
Don't look at it's like it's forever
C majorC        G+G
Between you and me
         B minorBm
I could honestly say
   FF          C majorC   FF C majorC FF C majorC FF
That things can only get better

  C majorC     G+G
And while I'm away,
B7B7          E minorEm
dust out the demons inside
        C majorC
And it won't be long
    E minorEm     G+G
Before you and me run
          A minorAm
To the place in our hearts
FF    G+G  C majorC G+G A minorAm G+G
Where we hide

   C majorC
And I guess that's why
   G+G      FF
they call it the blues
      C majorC
Time on my hands,
     G+G        FF
could be time spent with you
C majorC       G+G
Laughing like children,
      A minorAm
living like lovers,
C majorC      FF         D MajorD
rolling like thunder, under the covers
   FF
And I guess that's why
   G+G      C majorC  E minorEm FF
they call it the blues

   G+G
Just stare into space
E minorEm     FF      C majorC  FF C majorC FF C majorC FF
Picture my face in your hands
C majorC       G+G
Live for each second
      B minorBm
Without hesitation
  FF           C majorC FF C majorC FF C majorC FF
And never forget I'm your man

C majorC     G+G
Wait on me girl
B7B7     E minorEm     G+G
Cry in the night if it helps
  G7G7    C majorC         G+G
But more than ever I simply love you
      A minorAm  FF   G+G C majorC G+G A minorAm G+G
More than I love life itself

   C majorC
And I guess that's why
   G+G      FF
they call it the blues
      C majorC
Time on my hands,
     G+G        FF
could be time spent with you
C majorC       G+G
Laughing like children,
      A minorAm
living like lovers,
C majorC      FF         D MajorD
rolling like thunder, under the covers
