Blues Is King

Written by Marshall Crenshaw

	  		
Intro: F# D E (4x) F# 

              D E F#             D  E 
    Blues is king, a beautiful thing 
 F#                  D      E 
    You just don't know whenever 
            F# 
    You're done by the one you love 
 F#                    D  E 
    And the joke's on you 
 F#                          D  E 
    If you don't know it's true 
 F#                    D    E 
    If you lose your dreams 
            F# 
    You'll know what I'm thinking of 

E D7+              A7+ D7+         A7+ 
    Yeah, blues is king, so let it ring 
  D7+        A7+          G                  E 
    Surrender do, to the sound so real and true 
    D7+            A7+ D7+            A7+ 
    And relax your mind, go on, you'll be fine 
  D7+         A7+                G       C7+   
    Surrender do, 'cause you'll never displace it 
       Am7        Eb   F   G    Eb G7+ 
    So face it, blues is king 

 F#                D E F#        D E 
    As the sun descends, rain begins 
 F#                D E      F# 
    Everything in view is a dull shade of blue 
 F#                  D  E F#              D  E 
    And the traffic sounds, the lights uptown 
 F#                 D    E      F# 
    Make a sad and uninviting scene to walk into 

E D7+                   A7+ 
    But the blue of the night 
 D7+               A7+ 
    Everything in daylight 
 D7+             A7+             G                  E 
    Don't even begin, to be as blue as the mood I'm in 
 D7+            A7+ D7+         A7+ 
    You go out alone, on their way home 
 D7+              A7+    G        C7+ 
    I'm wandering on, remembering only 
              Am7         Eb   F   G    Eb G 
    That I'm lonely and blues is king 

 F#           D E F#             D E 
    Blues is king, a beautiful thing 
 F#                  D      E 
    You just don't know whenever 
            F# 
    You're torn by the one you love 
 F#                     D E 
    And the joke's on you 
 F#                          D E 
    If you don't know it's true 
 F#                    D E 
    If you lose your dreams 
            F# 
    You'll know what I'm thinking of 


E D7+               A7+ D7+         A7+ 
    Yeah, blues is king, so let it ring 
 D7+          A7+         G                  E 
    Surrender do, to the sound so real and true 
 D7+                A7+ D7+                 A7+ 
    Just relax your mind, go on, you'll be fine 
 D7+          A7+                G        C7+ 
    Surrender do, 'cause you'll never displace it 
       Am7        Eb   F   G    Eb G  Eb7+ F G  
    So face it, blues is king
