Blind Willie McTell - Searching the Desert for the Blues

Chords by: Chase Chafin

The chords are kind of awkward for standard tuning on guitar.

I suggest playing a different key or using a capo so you can easily play

different

shapes and keep the key of C.

Scroll to the bottom for the progression in G and A.

Intro/Verses:

C G7 F F7

C G7 C

C G7 F F7
You may search the ocean, you might go across the deep blue sea,

C G7 C
But mama you'll never find another hot shot like me.

C G7 F F7
I followed my baby, from the station to the train,

C G7 C
and the blues came down like dark night and showered me.

C G7 F F7
I left her at the station, wringing her hands and cryin'.

C G7 C
I told her she had a home just as long as I had mine.

C G7 F F7
I've got two women, and you can't tell 'em apart.

C G7 C
I got one in my bosom, the other one in my heart.

C G7 F F7
The one in my bosom, she's in Tennessee,

C G7 C
And the one in my heart don't even give a darn for me.

C G7 F F7
I used to say a married woman, were the sweetest woman ever was born,

C G7 C
But I've changed that thing, you better let married women alone.

C G7 F F7
Take my advice, let these married women be,

C G7 C
'Cause their husbands will grab ya and beat ya ragged as a cedar tree.

C G7 F F7
When a woman say, she love you 'bout good as she do herself

C G7 C
I don't pay her no attention, tell that same line to somebody else

C G7 F F7
I really don't believe no woman in the whole round world do right

C G7 C
Act like an angel in the daytime, mess by the ditch at night
