lyrics

Blues Run The Game Jackson C. Frank

(G) (C) (G) (C) (G)
Catch a boat to (C)England, (G)baby,
Maybe to (C)Spain.
(G) Wherever (C)I have (G)gone,
(G) Wherever I've (C)been and (G)gone,
(G) Wherever (C)I have (G)gone,
The (D)blues (C)run the (G)game. (D) (D7) (G)

Send out for (C)whiskey, (G)baby,
Send out for (C)gin.
(G) Me and room (C)service, (G)baby,
(G) Me and room (C)service, (G)honey,
(G) Me and room (C)service, (G)girl,
We're (D)living a (C)life of (G)sin. (D) (D7) (G)

When I'm not (C)drinking, (G)baby,
You are on my (C)mind.
(G) When I'm not (C)sleeping, (G)baby,
(G) When I'm not (C)sleeping, (G)honey,
(G) When I'm not (C)sleeping, (G)girl,
You (D)know you´re going to (C)find me (G)crying. (F) (C) (G) (F) (C) (G) (C) (D) (D7) (G)

Living is a (C)gamble, (G)baby,
Loving's much the (C)same.
(G) Wherever (C)I have (G)gone,
(G) Wherever I've (C)thrown those (G)dice,
(G) Wherever (C)I have (G)played,
The (D)blues (C)run the (G)game. (D) (D7) (G)

Try another (C)city, (G)baby,
Try another (C)town.
(G) Wherever (C)I have (G)gone,
(G) Wherever I've (C)been and (G)gone,
(G) Wherever (C)I have (G)gone,
The (D)blues (C)followed me (G)down. (D) (D7) (G)

Maybe to(C)morrow, (G)darlin´,
Somewhere down the (C)line,
(G)I'll wake up (C)older, (G)baby now,
(G) On somebody´s (C)shoulder, (G)darlin´,
(G) I'll wake up (C)older, (G)baby´,
And (D)maybe stop (C)all of my (G)trying. (F) (C) (G) (F) (C) (G) (C) (D) (D7) (G)

Catch a boat to (C)England, (G)baby,
Maybe to (C)Spain.
(G) Wherever (C)I have (G)gone
(G) Wherever I've (C)been and (G)gone,
(G) Wherever (C)I have (G)gone,
The (D)blues were (C)all the (G)same. (D) (D7) (G)

about

Jan Hauenstein Göttingen, Germany

More than background music.
You'll hear folk, blues, jazzy songs, rock. Big voice. Albums recommended by Gordon Bok, Harvey Andrews, Jez Lowe and others.

Why no free uploads? I cover songs. Register them with the German music rights agency GEMA. They hopefully reimburse the artists. The tax authorities demand that I make (not lose) a little money each year...
