G Am D G
                G
I'm just a singer
                      Am
A natural born guitar ringer
               D
Kind of an old clinger
            G
to sad old songs

I'm not a walk behinder
                 Am
I'm a new note finder
                D
But my names a reminder of a
                        G
blues man that already gone

So I started drinkin
                                  Am
and took things that messed up my thinkin
           D
I was sure sinkin
              G
when you came along

I was alone in the hotlight
                     Am
not too much left in sight
                           D
But she changed all that in one night
                      G
when she sang me this song

           G
Hey baby I love you
           Am
Hey baby I need you
                  D                                          G
Hey baby you ain't gotta prove to me your some kind of macho man

You waisted so much of your life
                   Am
Runnin through the dark night
                   D
Let me shine some love light
                G
Down on a blues man

Little BREAK

Same chords as before:

I got so sick of speed an
all the stuff they said I was needin
If I was to keep pleasin to all of my fans
I got cuffed on dirt roads
I got sued for no shows
But you came and took all that old load down on this blues man

Hey baby I love you too
Hey baby I need you
Hey baby I do get tired of this travelin band
                       G
I'm thirty years old now
                Am
nights would be cold now
                   D
If you wouldn't have stuck it out
                G
with this blues man

I'm thirty years old now
Night sure would be cold now
If you hadn't stuck it out
with this blues man
