One Step Ahead Of The Blues

[D] [A] [E]  4x *

I ain't [D]high on co[A]caine
I don't [E]need the pain
It's [D]bad for your [A]brain and that's [E]true
I ain't [D]dropping no [A]names
I ain't [E]playing no games
I'm just [D]one step a[A]head of the [E]blues
[D]One step a[A]head of the [E]blues

[D] [A] [E]  2x

From [D]Memphis to [A]Reno
From [E]New York to Tokyo
I'll [D]try to come [A]through for [E]you
I [D]won't do you [A]in
I ain't no [E]fair-weather friend
I'm just [D]one step a[A]head of the [E]blues
[D]One step a[A]head of the [E]blues

[D] [A] [E]

I don't [D]rob, I don't [A]steal
I ain't [E]begging no meal
I [D]ain't driven to [A]drink, I'm no [E]fool
I don't [D]run with the [A]crowd
I don't [E]talk big and loud
I'm just [D]one step a[A]head of the [E]blues
[D]One step a[A]head of the [E]blues

[D] [A] [E]  2x

I've been [D]under a [A]spell
I ain't been [E]feeling well
I've [D]been in a [A]shell, and that's [E]true
[D]Dealing with a [A]curse
But it [E]couldn't be worse
I've been [D]one step a[A]head of the [E]blues
[D]One step a[A]head of the [E]blues
[D]One step a[A]head of the [E]blues
[D]One step a[A]head of the [E]blues
