Face Down in the Blues - Doug Gray, The Marshall Tucker Band

I wake up every morning with the dew on my face

Been down so long now without a trace

I shuffle through the streets, alone

It’s too late for me, I can’t go home,

I know that I’m face down in the blues

I’m been down so many times before,

All the lonely times I can’t get no lower no more

Oh you know that’s true, I’m drownin' in it, FDITB

I put bread in my belly, just to stay alive

Markin' everything for a dollar ninty-nine

Oh why New York City you so mean

Now I’m drownin' in it, I’m face down in the blues

, Guitar Interlude with Wah-Wah,

, Guitar Interlude with heavy B3 support

and Gtr Blues overdrive,

Twist the cap, Let it flow

Hey babe, smooth red glow

I know what’s you’re thinkin'

Ah, it just ain’t right

But it’s the only way, I can sleep tonight

Well I’m face down, Face down in the blues

Well I’m face down, Face down in the blues

Got all the trouble I can use,

Face down in the blues.

Guitar & out,
