He’s a giant of a man, He always understands
The very best notes to use
His hand make two of mine, his heart beat right on time
He taught me how to sing the blues
He’s the reason why I choose to live on the highway now

SOLO: (play twice)



I played the blues with Walter, and Muddy pulled me through
I know a Jimmy Rogers song or two
But there’s one thing I know, no matter where I go
I can do a little howling too
That’s why I sing these blues, I’m living on the highway now

The years have come and gone but the blues still go on
I only sing my songs for fun
If you ask me to, I’ll do a song for you,
‘Cause the women like to see me come
Me and my guitar, my band, we’re living on the highway now

OUTRO:
repeat and fade

(Verse 1)
Morning rain keeps on falling
like the tears that fall from my eyes
as I sit in my room staring out at the gloom
this rain it’s the same old blues[F+]

(Verse 2)
I can’t help I can’t help from thinkin’
how the sun used to shine on my back door
now the sun’s turned to rain all my laughter’s turned to pain
it’s a drink of the same old blu[F+]es

(Solo)


E7 A7 D F+ walkdown to D

(Verse 3)
Sunshine sunshine is all you see now
but it all looks like clouds to me
But as I sit in my room staring out at the gloom
this rain it’s the same old blues yeah
this rain it’s the same old blues yeah yeah
this rain it’s the same old blues [F+]
