Instructions: Feel free to cry while playing ;). It's a blue song.
Notices: This is my 25% ear, 25% ASCII, 25% MIDI and 25% ass
work. :D Guitars are %0 MIDI, just the drums. So don't
fret, i listened to CD many times they're corect.
There must be actually 2 guitars but i tried to arrange
for one.
This great sad song cannot be found in studio
recordings. It was released as single, B-side of the
"Never Before". It was recorded during "Machine
Head" Sessions now can be found at
version of "Machine Head".
So hear are the lyrics and chords.


[Bm]If you're leaving, close the door.
[A]I'm not expecting people [Bm]anymore.
[Bm]Hear me greaving, lying on the floor.
[A7]Whether I'm drunk or dead I [Bm]really ain't too
sure.

[Bm]I'm a blind man,[D] I'm a blind man.
[G]And my world [Em]is pale.
[Bm]When a blind man cries,
[D]Lord you know [G]there ain't no sadder[Bm] tale.


[Bm]Had a friend once, in a room.
[A]Had a good time, but it ended much to soon.
[Bm]In a cold month, in that room.
[A7]Found a reason for the [Bm]things we had to do.

[Bm]I'm a blind, I'm[D] a blind man.
[G]Now my world is [Em]cold.
[Bm]When a blind man cries,
[D]Lord you know he [G]feels it from his [Bm]soul

Lyric

If you're leaving, close the door
I'm not expecting people anymore
Hear me grieving, I'm lying on the floor
Whether I'm drunk or dead, I really ain't too sure
I'm a blind man, I'm a blind man and my world is pale
When a blind man cries, Lord, you know there ain't no sadder tale

Had a friend once in a room
Had a good time but it ended much too soon
In a cold month in that room
We found a reason for the things we had to do
I'm a blind man, I'm a blind man, now my room is cold
When a blind man cries, Lord, you know he feels it from his soul
