CAPO: 2nd FRET

INTRO:
Am  C  F  G

PRE-CHORUS:
  G                 C
Blind Willie was a gospel preaching man
 Am                  D
Sang in the morning light
Am                     C
  But he cried in the darkness
        F       G
Of his ni-i-ight


VERSE:
G                      C
He met his stand in a fearing land
     Am                    D
Was hard on A Motherless Child
Am                     C
  In the years of his teens
          F      G
He was a wi-i-ild


CHORUS:
F            C                 Bb
 Play a sad song and make it shine
F               C                  Bb
 Don`t make it long before you`re feeling fine
 F            C         Bb               C
Blue guitars play on a pretty as a fall day
   F        C        Bb         C
I pity the man who changes his way


VERSE:
G              C
 He was brave out making waves
         Am                    D
On the streets of a riverboat town
Am                      C                  F       G
Shit I swear I`m gonna tear that building dow-o-own


PRE-CHORUS:
  G                 C
Blind Willie was a gospel preaching man
     Am                  D
And sang in the morning light
Am                     C
  But he cried in the darkness
       F        G
Of his ni-i-ight


CHORUS:
F               C                 Bb
 Play your sad song and make it shine
F               C                  Bb
 Don`t make it long before you`re feeling fine
 F            C         Bb               C
Blue guitars play on a pretty as a fall day

I pity the man who changes his way
