[verse 1]
The sky is turning gray
Today is not my day
As far as i can see
I have to ask why me
I guess that in my way
I'd like to stop and say
I wish i wish i knew
Just how to find a cure to
[chorus]
My blues, my blues, my blues, my blues, my blues
My blues, my blues, my blues, my blues, my blues
It's not as if unhappiness is something i would choose
'cause my blues, my blues, my blues i cannot lose
[verse 2]
My mom asked me "what's wrong?"
I simply moved along
My dad tried helping out (hey there)
But all i did was pout for
[chorus]
My blues, my blues, my blues, my blues, my blues
My blues, my blues, my blues, my blues, my blues
It's not as if unhappiness is something i would choose
'cause my blues, my blues, my blues i cannot lose
[bridge]
You know you gotta try chase the blues away
I know but i just can't shake 'em
You know you gotta try and turn your day around
You know you gotta try chase the blues away
I know but i just can't shake 'em
You know you gotta try and turn your day around
But how?
You could read a book, call a friend, write a letter, you can send
See a movie, grab your toy, sing in your loudest voice
Go outside, dance about, stay inside and shout it out
Draw a picture, make a snack, smile till you got the knack
Give yourself a hug or tickle, try a laugh or just a giggle
There are ways to beat the blues, come on now it's up to you!
(yeah!)
[instrumental]
[chorus]
You know it's only true
There are things i can do
I'll give them all a try
To my blues i say goodbye
My blues, my blues, my blues, my blues, my blues
My blues, my blues, my blues, my blues, my blues
You've finally found your happiness, you know now you can choose
'cause my blues, my blues, my blues i'm gonna lose
