Rhythm of the Blues
Rhythm Of The Blues
Carpenter Mary Chapin
Intro: (F-C-Gm-Gm7)-(F-C-Gm-Gm7)
F C Gm Gm7
I can hear the rain come down, I can listen with my heart
F C Gm Gm7
I can see with both eyes closed in the dark
Bb
Sleep will come in just a while but till it does I choose
F Dm Bb
To listen to the rain, it's the rhythm of the blues
F C Gm Gm7
I walk along these streets of home that once belonged to us
F C Gm Gm7
And now baby I walk alone and I am lost
Bb
In the sound of my own footsteps on the avenues
F Dm Bb
I guess I'm only walking to rhythm of the blues
Am Dm Bb C Am Dm Bb C
I don't wanna hear another word spoken, I don't wanna see another tear shed
Am Dm Bb C Eb Bb
I can't seem to fix what's broken, like this record baby in my head
Instrumental: (F-C-Gm-Gm7)-(F-C-Gm-Gm7)
F-Bb F-Bb
Lonely looks as bad on me as lonely looks on you
Dm F C Dm Am Bb F-Bm
And still we keep on moving to the rhythm of the blues
F C Gm Gm7
I want a place to call my own, you have never been
F C Gm Gm7
I wanna look around and know you won't be coming back again
Bb
On some pretense paper-thin that I can see right through
F Dm Bb
You come and go baby, like the rhythm of the blues
Dm Bb
You come and go baby, like the rhythm of the blues
Dm Bb
You come and go baby, like the rhythm of the blues...
