A
I'm just a singer
D
A natural born guitar ringer
E
Kind of an old clinger
A
To sad old songs
A
I'm not a walk behinder
D
I'm a new note finder
E
But my names a reminder
A
Of a blues man thats already gone
A
So I started drinkin
D
And took things that messed up my thinkin'
E
I was sure sinkin'
A
When you came along
A
I was alone in the hotlight
D
Not too much left in sight
E
But she changed all that in one night
A
When she sang me this song
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/h/hank_williams_jr/blues_man_crd_ver_3.html ]
A
"Hey baby, I love you
D
Hey baby, I need you
E A
Hey baby , you ain't gotta prove to me your some kind of macho man
A
You wasted so much of your life
D
Runnin through the dark night
E
Let me shine some love light
A
Down on a blues man"
Solo goes to A D E A
I got so sick of speeding
D
And all the stuff they said I was needin
E A
If I was to keep pleasin to all of my fans
A
I got cuffed on dirt roads
D
I got sued for no-shows
E A
But you came and took all that old load down on this blues man
A
"Hey baby, I love you too
D
Hey baby, I need you
E A
Hey baby, I do get tired of this travelin band
A
I'm thirty years old now
D
Nights would be cold now
E
If you wouldn't have stuck it out
A
With this blues man"
A
I'm thirty years old now
D
Night sure would be cold now
E
If you hadn't stuck it out
A
with this blues man
