Tom Russell - Beyond the blues

Old ^Eman on the corner, ^Asinging my ^Elif^Esus4e ^E And he's playing that guitar with a ^Arusty old ^Ekni^Esus4fe ^E And every line that he sings rhymes with the ^Atruth And the ^Epromise of ^Bsomething beyond the ^Ablues Beyond the ^Eblues

^EMe and my darling took the ^Along way ^Earo^Esus4und ^E Through the wide open countries and the ^Aheart attack ^Etow^Esus4ns ^E To every fork in the road where we've all got to ^Achoose Between ^Edarkness and ^Blight, beyond the ^Ablues

Beyond the ^Eblues, beyond the ^Ashadows, beyond the ^Erai^Esus4n ^E Beyond the ^Bdarkness and all the ^Epain When you're walking in ^Acircles, with holes in your ^Esho^Esus4es ^E Love is the ^Broad that leads out beyond the ^Ablues Beyond the ^Eblues

^EOld man on the corner has ^Abeen gone for ^Eyea^Esus4rs ^E And that guitar in the night bled ^Arusty ^Etea^Esus4rs ^E But there's a song that he left us we'll never ^Alose That ^Elove is the ^Broad that leads beyond the ^Ablues Beyond the ^Eblues

Beyond the ^Eblues, beyond the ^Ashadows, beyond the ^Erain Beyond the ^Bdarkness and all the ^Epain When you're walking in ^Acircles, with holes in your ^Eshoes Love is the ^Broad that leads out beyond the ^Ablues Beyond the ^Eblues Love is the ^Broad that leads out beyond the ^Ablues
