CHASING The BLUES (c) Ken J Hill - 8/1/2013
-------------------------------------------------

I used to chase my blues away
But now they're chasing me
I just don't want these blues again
I need to set them free
-----------------------------------
Can't carry round this much baggage
Gonna leave it by the door
The weight of conflict took it's toll
Just can't take it any more
----------------------------------------------

Be true to me like there's no other
And I'll be there for you
We're both to blame for all that's wrong
You know this time it's true
So whatever it is that's just not right
It isn't worth the fight
Time to turn around and see the light
-----------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I know that you can hear me saying
Don't try and turn away
We must now meet in the middle
If we're gonna find our way
-----------------------------
It's not that I don't love you
You know that is a fact
It's just that I must be true to me
And that is not an act
------------------------------------------------
C2
------------------------------------------------
The blues is but a feeling
That neither of us need
And if we don't accept it
Then it surely can't succeed
The weight of conflict leaves a frown
So please don't bring me down
I just don't want these blues hangin 'round
--------------------------------------------------
