Blue Blazes Blues by Emery Glen

Emery Glen - Blue Blazes Blues; G position, standard tuning.

I got the blue, blue blazes blues, they burns all night long

I sits up wondering because my good gal's gone

Smoke go up the chimbley, black clouds hanging low

Smoke goes up the chimbley, black clouds hanging low

Where in the world did my good gal go?

Papa love Mama, Mama do love men

Mama's in the graveyard, Papa's in the pen

You would have the blue, blue blazes blues, they burns all night long

You got the blue blazes blues, they burns all night long, if you had treated your good gal wrong

Well, you can't mistreat 'em and keep 'em, too, why she left me no one ever knew

SOLO

Papa love Mama, Mama do love men

Well, Mama's in the graveyard, Papa's in the pen

Blue, blue, blue

She's blue, she don't know what to do

My baby, when she leaves here, she don't know what to do

I got the blue blazes blues, I don't know what to do
