I Guess That's Why They Call It The Blues
Elton John

 Intro:

C  Em7  F x2

Verse 1:

G

Don't wish it away

          Em                    F       C   F/C  
 F/C  C  F/C    C                              
G

Don't look at it like it's forever    ............................   Between you and me

                          Bm

I could honestly say

       F                               C        F6/C 
C  F6/C  C F6/C
That things can only get better   ...............................

Verse 2:

C                            G

And while I'm away

B7                                       Em

Dust out the demons inside

G7/D                          C                               
   G

         And it won't be long before you and me run

                                         Am                       F    
               G

To the place in our hearts .........................   where we hide

Chorus:

Am7  G/B            C                                 
            F

                 And I guess that's why they call it the blues

                      C                    G/B                     F

Time on my hands could be time spent with you

C                     G                           Am

Laughing like children, living like lovers

C/E             F                           D7/F#

Rolling like thunder under the covers

         F                                Gsus4          G    
  C            Em7     F

And I guess that's why   they   call       it the blues

Verse 3:

G

Just stare into space

Em                  F                  C   F/C  
 F/C  C  F/C    C                    G 
                        Bm

Picture my face in your hands  ...............................  Live for each second 
hesitation

       F                                    C        F6/C C  F6/C  C F6/C

And never forget I'm your man  ..........................................

Verse 4:

C                     G

Wait on me girl

B7                                     Em

Cry in the night if it helps

G7/D                            C                       G

          But more than ever I simply love you

                          Am               F              G

More than I love                      life itself
