One of the most beautiful blues ballads in my opinion is this song from Gary Moore "Still got the blues". I lately bought a DVD of Gary featering Albert King, the King of the Blues a marvellous DVD and ofcourse this song is also on that DVD. I play the DVD loud, plug in my guitar an try to play along, that gives me such a kick, I can follow now parts of the solo and just jamming around for the rest of the song. It sounds good, but still not as Gary plays it. For those who forgot the lyrics, I put them in this post.
Gary Moore - Still got the blues
Used to be so easy to give my heart away
But I've found out the hard way there's a price you have to pay
I found that love was no friend of mine
I should have known time after time
So long, it was so long ago
but I've still got the blues for you
Used to be so easy to fall in love again
But I've found out the hard way it's a road that leads to pain
I've found out that love was more than just a game
you play on to win but you lose just the same
So long, it was so long ago
but I've still got the blues for you
So many years since I've seen your face
but here in my heart there's an empty space
where you used to be So long, it was so long ago
but I've still got the blues for you
Though the days come and go there's one thing I know
I've still got the blues for you
Used to be so easy to give my heart away
But I've found out the hard way there's a price you have to pay
I found that love was no friend of mine
I should have known time after time
So long, it was so long ago
but I've still got the blues for you
Used to be so easy to fall in love again
But I've found out the hard way it's a road that leads to pain
I've found out that love was more than just a game
you play on to win but you lose just the same
So long, it was so long ago
but I've still got the blues for you
So many years since I've seen your face
but here in my heart there's an empty space
where you used to be So long, it was so long ago
but I've still got the blues for you
Though the days come and go there's one thing I know
I've still got the blues for you
