Verse 1
(A minor) Where does myth end
and reality begin?
Between rock and roll
or the hard lessons of the blues?
People tried to warn him,
don't (D major) go across those (A minor) tracks
He said blues was all the lack, (D major)
mystery train will bring me (A minor) back
Now he's toying with passion
Once (D major) he (A minor) got those blues (D major)
(A minor) Shakin' up the fifties
Breakin' (D major) all the (A minor) rules
He's a boy who stole the blues
And the (C major) blues made him pay
(A minor) It's in (D major) vain to punish him
That (F major) bitch (E major) got it, she don't (A minor) play
She don't play
The blues people,
you (D major) know, they share (G major) their (A minor) ma gic in
(D major) But (A minor) it never did return,
(D major) that's why they (G major) got so (A minor) mixed
He went up to the mountain of Memphis
And (D major) recorded all the (G major) label corp's (A minor) sons
Yes he (D major) did
Then (A minor) he soared so high
(D major) You know he (G major) came un (A minor) done
Listen people
He's the boy who stole the blues,
an (C major) d the blues made him pay
Get (D major) s the fame to punish him,
(F major) that bitch (E major) got it, she don't (A minor) play
She don't play
Talkin' about the boy who
stole the blues
Everybody wanna know how to do
Talkin' about the boy who
stole the blues
Everybody know you got to
pay your dues
Some say Jim Crow
(D major) Made him the king of (G major) rock and (A minor) roll
And if there had to be a king
(D major) It would have been a black boy, (G major)
that's for sure (A minor)
Well, this I know for certain
(D major) The black Bible (G major) is the (A minor) blues
Well, he took a page from him (D major)
Have you heard the (A minor) news?
He's the one who stole the blues
Yes, (C major) he went across the (A minor) tracks
(C major) An (D major) d when he broke the code
He (F major) came back sounding black (E major)
He's the (A minor) one who stole the blues
And (C major) the blues made him pay
It's (D major) in vain to punish him, yeah
(F major) That (D minor) bitch (E major) got a sheet on (A minor) way
She don't play, hey
Talkin' about the boy
who stole the blues
Talkin' about the boy who stole
the fire from you
Talkin' about the boy who
sought the truth
Talkin' about the boy
who stole the blues
Just like Jackie folks a color
line to friend
America to love the blues
Talkin' about the boy who
stole the blues
Everybody knows you got to
pay your dues
Talkin' about the boy
who stole the blues
Blues don't play
No, blues don't play
Thank for watching.
