I Guess Thats Why They Call It The Blues-Elton John  1983 
C// G// F//// 2x
G                          Em                F       C F C F
  Don't wish it away don’t look at it s like it's forever
C                 G                   Bm
  Between you and me I could honestly say
     F                   C     F C F C 
That things can only get better
    C          G    B7                    Em
And while I'm away, dust out the demons inside
                C           Em         G
And it won't be long before you and me run
                    Am     F        G//// Am// G7//   
To the place in our hearts where we hide

      C                     G           F
And I guess that's why they call it the blues
           C               G               F
Time on my hands, could be time spent with you
C             G                     Am
Laughing like children, living like lovers,
C            F                  D
Rolling like thunder, under the covers
      F                     G          C    Em F
And I guess that's why they call it the blues

G                       Em         F            C    F C F C 
  Just stare into space picture my face in your hands
GM7           G                  Bm
Live for each second without hesitation
     F                     C  F C F C 
And never forget I'm your man
GM7        G    B7                     Em   //                G7                         
Wait on me girl cry in the night if it helps    but more than ever
  Cm          G               Am   F      G//// Am7// GM7/ G7/
I simply love you more than I love life itself

And I guess that's why they call it the blues
           C               G               F     
Time on my hands, could be time spent with you
C             G                     Am
Laughing like children, living like lovers,
C            F                  D
Rolling like thunder, under the covers
      F                     G           C      G F
And I guess that's why they call it the blues
