Blue Tarp Blues chords by Sonny Landreth

You can play just the chords, but if you listen to the record that's not all.
Sonny uses one of his techniques (no idea how it works exactly) to create an amazing sound.


Intro: Am Asus4 (repeat some times)

Air Force One had a heck of a view

I went walkin through the water sprung a leak in my shoes

Solo over Verse Chords

Em
No it wasn't the weather that sank me and you
         Em
It was a bad mix of politics, greed and fools
      Em
That levee of lies couldn't hold back the truth
      Am
We're in deep but not out of the reach
Em
Throw me something, mister.

I'm gonna fly my colors and watch for you
Am
I'm gonna fly my colors and watch for you
Am
Like a flag of hope, above the blue tarp blues

Am
I got the blues
