That's Why I Play The Blues - Gary Moore

Some people say why do you play the blues?

Some even ask me if I paid my dues

Tell them it’s somethin' to get me through every time that I think of you

That’s why, that’s why I play the blues

Some people wanna know if the blues is here to stay

Tell them I don’t know, but that it’s with me every day

Stops me from fallin' down to the ground every time you’re not around

That’s why, that’s why I play the blues

I don’t know if it’s wrong or right, but the blues is with me day and night

Just don’t ask me about the way I feel, all I know is that the blues is real

Tell them it’s somethin' to get me through every time that I’m thinking of you

That’s why, that’s why I play the blues

That’s why I play the blues

That’s why I play the blues

That’s why, that’s why I play the blues
