A7 G#7 G7 C C/B Dm7 G7
They heard the breeze in the trees
G7+ C E7 F
Singing weird melodies
D7 G7 C G#7 G7
And they made that the start of the blues.
A7 G#7 G7 C Am Dm7
And from a jail came the wail
G7 C E7 F
Of a down-hearted frail
D7 G7 Dm7 G7 C Fdim C
And they played that as part of the blues.
Bridge:
C C/B E7 Dm6 E7
From a whippoorwill, out on a hill,
Dm6 Bm7/5- E7 Bm7/5-
They took a new note,
E7 A7 A7sus4 A7
Pushed it through a horn til it was born
Am7 D7 G7
Into a new note.
A7 G#7 G7 C Am Dm7 G7
And then they nursed it, rehearsed it,
G+ C Bm7/5- E7 F
And gave out the news
D7 Dm7 G7 C Am G#7 G7
That the southland gave birth to the blues.

(Repeat last verse)
Last time:
