[Intro 1]
[Em][G][C][G][Am][C][Dsus4][G][C]
[Dsus4]

[Verse 1]
[G]I learned to swim
When daddy [C]threw me in
[Dsus4]the river[C]
[G]The Army tau[Bm]ght me
How [C]to shine my [Dsus4]shoes
[G]The years have shown me
That [C]nothin' lasts [D]forever
[Ebdim]But everythin[Em]g I know ab[G]out t[C]he bl[G]ues[Am]
[D]I learned from you[G]
[C][Dsus4]

[Verse 2]
[G]I thought I'd seen
My share of [C]bad luck and [Dsus4]hard times
[G]But nothin' set me up
For what [C]you put me [Dm]through[Dsus4]
[G]I learned a lesson
That will [C]hurt me for a life[D]time
[Ebdim]'Cause everythin[Em]g I know[G][C]
[G]about [Am]the blues
[Dsus4]I learned f[D]rom you[G]

[Verse 3]
[Eb]I know that promises
Are [G]things that just get broken
[Cm]And you can't trust a
woman's [G]tears[Eb]
And if love is [G]what you place your hope in
[A]All your hope may disappea[D]r[G][C][Dsus4][G][C][D]
[G][C][Ebdim][Em][G][C][G][Am]
[C][Dsus4][G][C][D]
[G]In certain circles I've
ac[C]quired a reputation
[G]But I give credit where cre[C]dit is due[D]
[G]Yes it's true I got a fir[C]st
rate educa[D]tion
[Ebdim]'Cause everythin[Em]g I know ab[D]out t[C]he bl[G]ues[Am][Dsus4]
[D][Em][G][C][Bm][Am][D][Ebdim][Em][G][C][G][Am][C]
[D]I learned from you[G]

[Outro 1]
