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
