The Blues Man [A Tribute to Hank Williams Jr.] Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][C][D][G]

[Verse 1]
He's just [G]a singer,
a natural born guitar [C]ringer
Kind of [D]a clinger to sad old s[G]ongs
He's not a walk-behinder,
he's a new note [Am]finder
But his name's a re[D]minder
Of a blues man that's already gone
[G]

[Verse 2]
So he started drinkin',
took some things that messed up his think[C]in'
He was sure [D]sinkin' when she came [G]along
He was alone in the spot light,
not too much [Am]left in sight
She changed all [D]that one night
When she sang him this song
[G]

[Verse 3]
Hey [D]baby, I [G]love you, Hey baby, I [Am]need you
Hey baby, [D]you ain't got
to prove to me
You're some kind of macho [G]man
You've wasted [D]so much of [G]your life
Runnin' through the [Am]dark nights
Let me shine a little [D]love light

[Interlude 1]
Down on that blues man
[G][C][G]

[Verse 4]
He got so sick from [G]speedin',
all the things they said he was need[C]in'
If he was to keep [D]on pleasin'
all of his [G]fans
He got cuffed on dirt roads,
he got sued over [Am]no shows
She came and took [D]all that old load
Down off that blues [G]man, and he sang
Hey [D]baby, I love

[Verse 5]
[G]you too,
Hey baby, I [Am]need you
Hey baby, I [D]do get tired of
this travelin' [G]band
I'm over [D]forty years [G]old now,
nights would be [Am]cold now
If you hadn't [D]stuck it out
With this blues man
[G]

[Verse 6]
He's over forty years old now,
nights would be [Am]so cold now
If she hadn't hun[D]g around

[Outro 1]
With that blues man
[G][D][G][Am][D]
[G][D][G][Am][D]
[G][Am][D]
[G][D][G][Am][D]
