Lyrics That's Why I Play The Blues - Gary Moore

That's Why I Play The Blues

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
