Whatever Happened to the Blues - Waylon Jennings (1994) Notes: [Verse 1]
       F#m
Like a long time friend you see now and then

Bm                    E             F#m
One you thought would always be there

       F#m
Wasn't nothin but a song for me to lean on

   Bm                  E          F#m
At least it showed me somebody cared

D               E                F#m
It was somethin I never thought I'd lose

    D        E                         F#m
So tell me,  whatever happened to the blues?
[Verse 2]
        F#m
You can follow the tracks all the way back

       Bm         E        F#m
To the Louisiana no-lane jive

     F#m
And Ol' John R., they took it so far

    Bm             E          F#m
Did somebody let a good thing die

D                   E                 F#m
Maybe there was nothin that they could do

D        E                         F#m
Tell me, whatever happened to the blues?
[Bridge]
D                 E                   F#m
on't you know the music was a part of me

          D                  E           C#m
I ain't talkin what you been doin on the MTV, Lord
[Solo] F#m Bm E F#m F#m Bm E F#m D E F#m D E F#m [Verse 3]
F#m
Know that I've heard your street-wise words

          Bm        E         F#m
They been jumpin up in my face

F#m
Wastin lots of time a whole lot of mine

      Bm           E          F#m
Just puttin people in their place

D               E                F#m
You can pick on me if you really want to

     D       E                        F#m
But tell me, whatever happened to the blues

          D       E                         F#m
Somebody tell me, whatever happened to the blues?
