Song: BIRTH OF THE BLUES
W:  B.G. DeSylva & Lew Brown
M: Ray Henderson


They heard the breeze 
-3    -2*  -2    2
in the trees sing-ing weird mel-o-dies
-3  3    -2   -4  -3    3   4   -4 -3 
And they made that the start of the blues
-5   4    -4   -4  -4    -4  4   -5   4
And from a jail came the wail 
3   -2* -2  2    -3   3   -2
of a down-heart-ed frail
-4-3  3     4   -4   -3
And they played that as part of the blues
-5   4    -4     -4  -4  -4  4   -5   4
From a whip-poor-will out on a hill 
-4   4  -5   -5*  6    -5 -4 -5 -4
they took a new note
-5    -4 -5 -4   -4
Pushed it through a horn 
-4     4    -5   -5* 6
till it was worn in-to a blue note
5*   -3  4*  -3  4* -3 4* -3   -3  
And then they nursed it re-hearsed it 
3    -2*  -2    2    -3 3     -2   -4
and gave out the news
-3   3    4  -4   -3
That the south-land 
-5    4   -4    -4
gave birth to the blues
-4   -4    4  -5    4

REPEAT

The Rat Pack
