(D minor) (A minor)
(E minor) (D minor) (A minor)
Verse 1
I saw (A minor)
some people starving
There was murder, there was rape
Their villages were burning
They were trying to escape
I could (D minor) n't meet their glances
I was staring at my shoes
It was (A minor) acid, it was tragic
It was almost like the blues (E minor) (D minor)
It was almost like (A minor) the blues

Verse 2
(A minor)
I have to die a little
Between each murderous thought
And when I'm finished thinking
I have to die a lot
There's tor (D minor) ture and there's killing
And there's all my bad reviews
(A minor) The war, the children missing
Lord, it's almost like the blues (E minor) (D minor)
It's almost like (A minor) a blues
Verse 3
(A minor)
So I let my heart get frozen
To keep away the rot
My father says I'm chosen
My mother says I'm not
I listened (D minor) to their story
Of the Gypsies and the Jew (F major) (D minor) s
It was good, (A minor) it wasn't boring
It was almost like the blues (E minor) (D minor)
It was almost (A minor) like the blues
Verse 4
(A minor)
There is no God in Heaven
And there is no Hell below
So says the great professor
Of all there is to know
But I've had (D minor) the invitation
That a sinner can't refuse
And it's (A minor) almost like salvation
It's almost like the blues (E minor) (D minor)
It's (A minor) (E minor) (D minor)
almost like
(A minor) a blues (E minor) (D minor)
Almost like (A minor) a blues
