[Strophe]
G 
I'm just a singer 
                      Am7 
A natural born guitar ringer 
          D 
kind of a clinger 
           G 
to sad old songs 
               G 
I'm not a walk behinder 
               Am7 
I'm a new note finder 
               D 
but my names a reminder 
                             G 
of a blues man thats already gone 
             G 
so i started drinkin' 
                              Am7 
took thinks that messed up my thinkin 
           D 
i was sure sinkin 
              G 
when you came along 
                       G 
i was alone in the hot light 
                    Am7 
not to much left in site 
                             D 
but she changed all that one night 
                      G 
when she sang me this song
[Refrain]
    D C         G 
hey baby i love you 
           Am7 
hey baby i need you 
             D 
hey baby you aint got to prove to me your 
                       G 
some kinda macho man 
               C              G 
you've wasted so much of your life 
                        Am7 
runnin through the dark nights 
                  D 
let me shine some love light 
                         G 
down on this blues man
