Believe These Blues

Am                            Dm                          Am
As long as time keeps ticking, long as people have to cry
Dm                                           Am
When I see loved ones leaving, saying last goodbyes
E7#9                 F9   E7#9        Am
I believe these blues are never gonna die

Am                          Dm                     Am
When I see bad things happen to good folks everyday
Dm                                           Am
Children going hungry with nothin’ on their plates
E7#9                  F9  E7#9       Am
I believe these blues won’t ever go away

[Bridge]
Dm                                   Am
People try to end their troubles by drinking whiskey down
Dm                             E7#9            Am
But I believe these blues will always be around

Am                     Dm                    Am
I can’t tell the future but I can play my song
Dm                                                   Am
I can’t tell the future but I sho' 'nuf can play my song
E7#9                     F9       E7#9          Am
And I believe these blues will go on and on and on
