Beyond The Blues

Intro: E  A  E   E Esus4

  E           A       E  Esus4  
Old man on the corner, singing my 
E
life
                       A      E   
And he's playing that guitar with 
Esus4  E
a rusty old knife
                             A
And every line that he sings rhymes 
with the truth
     E      B            A
And the promise of something beyond 
the blues
     E
Beyond the blues

E               A      E  Esus4 
Me and my darling took the long way 
 E
around
                       A        E 
Through the wide open countries 
Esus4  E
and the heart attack towns
                               A
To every fork in the road where 
we've all got to choose
    E       B           A
Between darkness and light, beyond 
the blues

     E            A        
Beyond the blues, beyond the 
   E  Esus4 E
shadows, beyond the rain
     B             E
Beyond the darkness and all the pain
             A                   E
When you're walking in circles, 
  Esus4  E
with holes in your shoes
        B                    A
Love is the road that leads out 
beyond the blues
     E
Beyond the blues

Solo

E               A        E  
Old man on the corner has been gone 
Esus4 E
for years
                       A   E  
And that guitar in the night 
Esus4   E
bled rusty tears
                               A
But there's a song that he left us 
we'll never lose
  E         B                  A
That love is the road that leads 
beyond the blues
     E
Beyond the blues

     E            A        
Beyond the blues, beyond the 
   E
shadows, beyond the rain
     B             E
Beyond the darkness and all the pain
             A                   E
When you're walking in circles, with
 holes in your shoes
        B                    A
Love is the road that leads out 
beyond the blues
     E
Beyond the blues
        B                    A
Love is the road that leads out 
beyond the blues
