[Verso 1]

B7 
Ever since I was a young boy 
B7 
Had the blues in my ears 
E9 
Brother Gregory cryin’ the blues 
E9 
Felt every one of his tears 
F# 
Saw first hand real early 
F#    E9 
About payin’ dues 
F# 
Mom raisin’ three kinds all alone 
F# 
Hand me down clothes and taped up shoes 


[Ponte]

E9               D#9 E9 
I love the blues 
E9                  D#9 E9 
Makes me feel so good 
E9                       D#9 E9 
Flowed like that muddy river 
G                  B7          F# 
Right through the neighborhood 


[Verso 2]

B7 
Blues made me feel so good 
B7 
Like that river just flowed with ease 
E9 
Us boys would try to sing along 
E9 
With Albert n' Paul and BB 
F# 
The thrill was never gone 
F#        E9 
With the blues on the radio 
F# 
Sat in the shade on the side of the house 
F# 
When it was too hot to get up and go
