The Blues Come Over Me Chords & Lyrics - B.b. King

[Am7]My baby [D7sus2]gives me love
[Am7]As good as lov[D7sus2]e can be
[Am7]I just leave her[D7sus2] crying
[Am7]When the blues come[D7sus2] over me[G]

[Am7]Up on a [D7sus2]mountain
[Am7]I'm drowning [D7sus2]in the sea
[Am7]All the clocks say[D7sus2] midnight
[Am7]When the blues come[D7sus2] over me [G]

[Dm7]The blues come [Am7]over me
[Dm7]I pack it up[Am7] and go
[Dm7]The blues come[Am7] over me [F]
[F]I catch the win[E7]d 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

[Dm7]I may think i'm [Am7]happy
[Dm7]I may think i'm f[Am7]ree
[Dm7]Nothing don't mean[Am7] nothing
When the [F]blues come over [E7]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
