The Boy Who Stole The Blues chords by
Mo Rodgers
Mo Rodgers

N/A
Verse 1
Am

Where does myth end

and reality begin?

Between rock and roll

or the hard lessons of the blues?

People tried to warn him,
D
Am

don't go across those tracks
D

He said blues was all the lack,
Am

mystery train will bring me back

Now he's toying with passion
D
Am
D

Once he got those blues
Am

Shakin' up the fifties
D
Am

Breakin' all the rules

He's a boy who stole the blues
C

And the blues made him pay
Am
D

It's in vain to punish him
F
E
Am

That bitch got it, she don't play

She don't play

The blues people,
D
G
Am

you know, they share their ma gic in
D
Am

But it never did return,
D
G
Am

that's why they got so mixed

He went up to the mountain of Memphis
D
G
Am

And recorded all the label corp's sons
D

Yes he did
Am

Then he soared so high
D
G
Am

You know he came undone

Listen people

He's the boy who stole the blues,
C

and the blues made him pay
D

Gets the fame to punish him,
F
E
Am

that bitch got it, she don't 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
G
Am

Made him the king of rock and roll

And if there had to be a king
D
G

It would have been a black boy,
Am

that's for sure

Well, this I know for certain
D
G
Am

The black Bible is the blues
D

Well, he took a page from him
Am

Have you heard the news?

He's the one who stole the blues
C
Am

Yes, he went across the tracks
C
D

And when he broke the code
F
E

He came back sounding black
Am

He's the one who stole the blues
C

And the blues made him pay
D

It's in vain to punish him, yeah
F
Dm
E
Am

That bitch got a sheet on 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.

  • Best Tuning App Ever

    MaddProfessor

    I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

  • Well-Designed App

    Rose the Black Cat

    I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

  • Got me back into playing

    Tuliketsune

    I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

  • Secret weapon

    Brad

    Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

  • Very reliable tuner

    theNewPaul

    This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

  • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

    Caleb Schafli

    It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

  • Great to tune and play

    Lynae T

    I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
