The Blues Randy Newman
The Blues
[C]He's gonna tell you 'bout his [G]dear old [F]mother
[C]Burned up in a factory in Springfield, Mass.
He's gonna tell you 'bout his [G]baby [F]brother
[C]Hustlin' down the city streets and selling his ass for a dollar bag[Am] [D] [G]
He's gonna tell you 'bout his uncle Neddy
Locked up in a prison out in Oregon
He's gonna tell you 'bout his best friend Eddie
Killed in a bar fight with a pair of marines and a sailor, Oh
Chorus:
He's got the [C]blues, this [Am]boy
He's [F]got the blues
You can [G]hear it in his music
He's [C]got the blues, this [Am]boy
He's [F]got the blues
You can [G]hear it, you can hear it
[Am]When I was nine years [/Ab]old my [/G]daddy ran a[/F#]way
With a [G]woman he met on a [C]train, oh
[Am]His little boy [/Ab]ran to the room [/G]where his piano lay in[/F#] wait for him
He [G]played and he played, he [C]played and he played
Chorus
A year ago, I met a girl I thought we'd hit a massive groove
But she dumped me and all we'd hit were the blues
