The Blues Man

G C D G George Jones G I'm just a singer C A natural-born guitar ringer D Kind of a clinger G To sad old songs G I'm not a walk-behinder C I'm a new note finder D But my name's a reminder C D G Of a blues man that's already gone G So I started drinking C Took some things that messed up my thinking D G I was sure sinking, when she came along G I was alone in the spot light C Not too much left inside D She changed all that one night G When she sang me this song Dolly Parton G Hey baby, I love you Am Hey baby, I need you D Hey baby, you don't have to prove to me C G You're some kind of macho man You've wasted so much of your life Am Running through the dark nights D C G Let me shine a little love light down on You Blues Man Solo 1 G C D G G C D G George Jones G I got so sick from speedin' C All the stuff they said I was needin' D If I was to keep pleasin' G All of my fans G I got cuffed on dirt roads C I got sued over no-shows D She came and took all that old load C G Down off this blues man. That's right Both G Hey baby, I love you too Am Hey baby, I need you too D C G Hey baby, I do get tired of this travelin' band Dolly G I know you do get tired Both G Oh, I'm up in my years now Am Nights would be cold now D G If you hadn't stuck it out with this blues man George G Oh, I'm up in my years now Both Am Nights would be cold now D G If you hadn't hung around with This Blues Man G C D G G C D G
