[Verse]
E
Fergus sings the blues
F#m                        D
   In bars of twelve or less
E
I'm a stranger to the land
F#m                D
  To this wilderness

[Pre-Chorus]
Asus2          E
All Things are possible
Asus2               E
But happen less and less
Asus2      E
This Is my country
Asus2        Dsus2
These Are my reasons

[Chorus]
         D           E
'Cause I look in the mirror
       D               E
And it throws back the question
      D          E
And I whisper in words
     D      E
That beg an answer
        D                           E
Tell me can this white man sing the blues?

[Verse]
E
Home sick James
F#m               D
    My biggest Influence
E
Tell Me why
F#m                D
   James and Bobby purify?

[Pre-Chorus]
Asus2   E
Lost in music
Asus2      E
Sweet soul music
Asus2      E
This is my country
Asus2        Dsus2
These are my reasons

[Chorus]
         D           E
'Cause I look in the mirror
       D               E
And it throws back the question
      D          E
And I whisper in words
     D      E
That beg an answer
       D           E
Yes, I look in the mirror
       D               E
And it throws back the question
      D          E
And I whisper in words
     D      E
That beg an answer
        D                           E
Tell me can this white man sing the blues?

[Pre-Chorus]
Asus2                       E        
From the north coast to the uplands
Asus2                        E
Stay on the left side of the white lines
Asus2              E
The campsites over Christmas
Asus2            Dsus2
I still dream of Memphis

[Outro]
         D           E
'Cause I look in the mirror
       D               E
And it throws back the question
      D          E
And I whisper in words
     D      E
That beg an answer
D                    E
I got the blue, blue world
      D                  E
And I see the blue, blue sky
D                          E
I got I got the blue, blue ocean
D          E
In my blue eye
        D                           E
Tell me can this white man sing the blues?
