G
Verse 1
G
C/G
I'm just a singer, a natural-born guitar ringer
D7/F#
G
Kind of a clinger to sad old songs
I'm not a walk-behinder,
Am7
I'm a new note finder
D7
But my name's a reminder
G
of a blues man that's already gone
Verse 2
G
So I started drinkin',
C
took things that messed up my thinkin'
D7
G
I was sure sinkin' when you came along
I was alone in the hot lights,
Am7
not too much left in sight
D7
But she changed all that one night,
G
when she sang me this song
Chorus 1
D
C
G
Hey baby, I love you
Am7
Hey baby, I need you
D7
Hey baby, you ain't got to prove to me
G
you're some kind of macho man
D
G
You've wasted so much of your life
Am7
running through the dark nights
D7
Let me shine some love light
G
down on the blues man
C
G
Verse 3
G
I got so sick from speedin',
C
all the stuff they said I wasn't needin'
D7
G
If I was to keep pleasin' all of my fans
I got cuffed on dirt roads,
Am7
I got sued over no-shows
D7
But she came and took all that old load
G
down off this blues man
Chorus 2
D
C
G
Hey baby, I love you too
Am7
Hey baby, I need you
D7
Hey baby, I do get tired
G
of this travelin' band
D
G
I'm 30 years old now,
Am7
nights would be cold now
D7
If you hadn't stuck it out
G
with this blues man
Outro 1
G
I'm 30 years old now,
Am7
nights sure would be cold now
D7
If you hadn't hung around
G
with this blues man
