VERSE 1

          D                    C
Well he stood on a sunny boy shoe-shine box
         G                    C
With a Stella guitar that he didn't play much
          D                      C                           G
And he's tellin' all the ladies gossip 'bout his friends in Nashville.
        Am                C
Said I just flew in from Hollywood
        RIFF1
With a long legged wouldn't do the boogie woogie
     F                      C                G
All night in the arms of a man named Danny Blue.

        Am                           C
Said I never heard your name on the radio
             G                      C
He said you must'a had some better ways
          Am                          C
Said, "I never seen your name in the flashin' lights,"
               RIFF1
he said, "The lights they musta been busted that night."
    F                           C
He run his fingers through his long blond hair and said,
  G
"Hey , who's runnin this show?"
 D                 C                        G
Looked around and said, "it must be Danny Blue."


CHORUS

RIFF2     C    G      D                  G

 C                       D                        G

      D                C                     G                C
Then Danny Blue hit a tuneful chord and he played a Tennesse Waltz,
    D                C                     G
We danced like only beggars, hookers and thieves can
Am                      C          G                      C
Out of the alley verse Myron James, he was famous in the neighbourhood
        D                  C             G
He had six gold watches on every arm and leg

           Am              C                G                       C
He said, "Danny Blue, you singin' fool, you ain't never gonna be a star
    D                     C                  G
You ain't never been to prison like Cash or Haggard or Coe
      RIFF1                                    C                 G
Then hup and a up jump bee-hive willy and she pushed ol' Myron aside
        Am                       D             G
Said, "Leave him alone he's the king of all of us"
