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

G
Don't wish it away
      Em7               F    C      F/A  C  F/A  C  F/A  C
Don't look at it like it's forever
               G
Between you and me
              Bm7
I could honestly say
 F                       C       F/A  C  F/A  C  F/A  C
That things can only get better

    C             G
And while I'm away
  B7                 Em7
Dust out the demons inside
Dm7                 C
And it won't be long
                  G
Before you and me run
                    Am
To the place in our hearts
F         G    G4    G  Am G/B C
Where we hide

     C
And I guess that's why
     G/B         F
They call it the blues
F  Em  Dm  C
Time on my hands
   G                     F
Could be time spent with you
C               G
Laughing like children
              Am
Living like lovers
             F                   D7/F#
Rolling like thunder, under the covers
      F                 G                C     C  Em7  F
And I guess that's why they call it the blues

G
Just stare into space
Em7       F               C   F/A  C  F/A  C  F/A  C
Picture my face in your hands
               G
Live for each second
          Bm
Without hesitation
 F                      C     F/A  C  F/A  C  F/A  C
And never forget I'm your man

C        G
Wait on me girl
  B7                   Em7
Cry in the night if it helps
    Dm7        C                  G
But more than ever I simply love you
             Am  F      G   G4    G
More than I love life itself

     C
And I guess that's why
 G/B           F
They call it the blues
F  Em  Dm  C
Time on my hands
G                        F
