My Old Friend the Blues

[Verse 1] Just when every ray of hope was gone I should have known that you would come along I can't believe I ever doubted you My old friend the blues [Verse 2] Another lonely night, a nameless town If sleep don't take me first, you'll come around I know I can always count on you My old friend the blues [Bridge] Lovers leave and friends 'll let you down But you're the only sure thing that I found No matter what I do, I'll never lose My old friend the blues [Guitar Break] [Bridge] Lovers leave and friends 'll let you down But you're the only sure thing that I found No matter what I do, I'll never lose My old friend the blues [Outro] Just let me hide my weary heart in you My old friend the blues
