The Blues Come Over Me

B.B. King

 Am7D7sus2
 My baby gives me love
 Am7D7sus2
 As good as love can be
 Am7D7sus2
 I just leave her crying
 Am7D7sus2G
 When the blues come over me 

 Am7D7sus2
 Up on a mountain
 Am7D7sus2
 I'm drowning in the sea
 Am7D7sus2
 All the clocks say midnight
 Am7D7sus2G
 When the blues come over me  

 Dm7Am7
 The blues come over me
 Dm7Am7
 I pack it up and go
 Dm7Am7F
 The blues come over me  
 FE7
 I catch the wind and blow

And some will take the wine
And some will take the night
When everything's all wrong
Then anything is all right

Some put in a song
And some sing it for their dues
Some go to sleep and wake up
Tangled in the blues

The blues come over me
I pack it up and go
The blues come over me
I catch the wind and blow

The blues come in a whisper
And make you scream and shout
And you'll do most anything
Just to let them out

 Dm7Am7
 I may think i'm happy
 Dm7Am7
 I may think i'm free
 Dm7Am7
 Nothing don't mean nothing
 FE7
When the blues come over me

The blues come up behind
The blues wait up ahead
The blues ask why you are born
If you just end up dead

The blues, talking about the blues
The blues, oh the blues, the blues
Talking about the blues
When the blues come over me
Talking about the blues
I have to go away
The blues, the blues
When the blues come over me
I have to pack it up and go
