Intro (Played in arpeggios): 

Em C G D x1


Verse 1:
EmI learned how to hammer,
                       GIn the burning August sun,

I learned how to lie and cheat,
                                  EmHow to steal and just how to run,

I fell asleep most nights,
                             GSomebody elses blood on my tongue, your tongue,
                        DYou learn just how to run.


Chorus:
                   Em               C                    But It's just the blues, Mary the blues
           G                       D                      Emswirl it around my head like your dreams ignoring these shoes,
                C                  G       DI'm somewhere over the rainbow for you.


Verse 2:
EmI learned how to cry,
                             GIn them lonesome September nights,

I learned to get by,
                                                  EmWith the dogs and the dirt and the charm of the street

I fell asleep most nights,
                                    GWith your pictures right behind my eyes, your eyes,
                               DThe killer and the victim, alright,
                    DRight at the same time.


Chorus:
                   Em               C                    But It's just the blues, Mary the blues
           G                       D                      Emswirl it around my head like your dreams ignoring these shoes,
                C                  G     DI'm somewhere over the rainbow for you.


                   Em               C                    But It's just the blues, Mary the blues
           G                       D                      Emswirl it around my head like your dreams ignoring these shoes,
                C                  G     D I'm somewhere over the rainbow for you.


Bridge:
F#m              D                    AAnd cause your smile, (And cause your smile) 
                  E                   F#mis pride like a rebel on the 4th of july,
             D                  AAnd my baby swings like a boxer,
               E                     F#mAnd sends her right hooks under my chin,
                 D                      AShe crys like a baby,(She crys like a baby)
        E                       F#mAnd she wears me just like a ring,
            D                 A     crys like a baby,(crys like a baby)
          E                    DAnd she wears me just like a ring.

EmI learned how to swagger,
                                          GI learnd how to hold you while your body burned,

I learned how to compromise,
                                      EmWhile this world went hurrciane turn,

We fell asleep most nights,
                                       GWith eachothers blood on our tongues,

My love,
