       "This is good"
 
[Bridge]
        Am           C6                C/E
But the devil he was jealous, took the apple in his hand
    D9                      E7
The devil tempted woman and woman tempted man
Am                      C/E                   C
God, he mourned and the tears rolled down his face
   D9                         E                  E7
It broke his heart to see his children fall from grace
           Am           E7
And on the 7th day they say, "God rested"
Dm7                           E7
    You know,  that ain't the truth
              Dm7      Em7* E7* Am       Eaug     C/E      D
'Cause on the 7th day, God      made the blue
              Dm      Em7* E7*     Am      Eaug      C       D
'Cause on the 7th day,         God made the blue

[Outro]
    Am             Eaug   C/E                 D7
The blues is been around      ever since that day
Am       Eaug                 C/E                   D7*
    Everybody gets the blues,      everybody got to pay
Dm                          E7
   For the wicked things we do
Dm                            E7
   And what we put each other through
           Dm7          E7
And on the 7th day they say, "God rested"
Dm7                             E7    Em7
    But you know that ain't the truth
              Dm7     Em7*   E7*              Am     Eaug     C/E      D7*
'Cause on the 7th day,    God , made the blue
              Am      Em7*   E7*              Am     Eaug     C/E      D7*
'Cause on the 7th day,    God , made the blue
Am                 Eaug     C/E      D7       Am*    Am/E***
God made the blue
