Dave Alvin - Evening Blues guitar chord

EVENING BLUES

Dave Alvin - C#

C F C

Standin barefoot in your kitchen door

G

Listenin to the soft evening rain

C F C

Watchin you dry off from your shower

G C

Look at me like you dont know my name

Then you heat the coffee on the stove

Pull the cup down from the shelf

And slowly turn your back on me

As I sing a blue song, to myself

Chorus

F

Yeah, I wish that I could hold you baby

C

But you seem, so far away

F

Yeah, I wish that I could kiss you baby

C

But Ive run out of sweet words to say

G

And I wish that I, could hear

F

Yeah, I wish that I could hear

C F C F C

1st - The blues you sing, to yourself

C F C F C F C

2nd - The blues you sing, to yourself, the blues you sing, to yourself

C F C F C

The blues you sing, the blues, the blues that you

F C

sing to yourself

Now, all the makeup is washed off your face

And your hair is slicked back wet

You hung the dress up you wore last night

And changed the sheets on your bed

All the promises you whispered to me

I guess theyre meant for someone else

Cause all I hear is the soft evening rain

And the blues that I sing, to myself

Repeat Chorus / Break

Now would you care if I walked out this door

Baby, I cant really tell

Our eyes meet, but we just, look away

And sing our blues, to ourselves

Repeat Chorus F
