INTRO:  

#1.
           
The band and I

            
 we played fro

        
m nine to five

.
            
It didn't pay 

              
much cause the

            
 place was jus

    
t a dive.
            
Then one night

           
 I saw her in 

    
the crowd.
            
And she asked 

              
if singing wit

            
h the band wou

       
ld be allowed.
            
It was just a 

            
weekday night,

            
 so, I said it

            
 would be alri

ght.
            
That's how I m

            
et the girl wh

es.

She sang the b

            
lues like no o

          
ne has ever he

ard.
            
And you could 

            
tell that she'

            
d lived every 


word.
            
That girl was 

           
somethin' spec

           
ial we could s


ee.
            
Then she sang 

            
a song of love

            
 and looked at

 
 me.
            
That girl coul

            
d do no wrong,

            
 so I let her 

              
sing all night

 
 long.
            
And I fell in 

              
love with the 

          
girl who sang 

    
the blues.

BRIDGE:
