John Mayall

Crawling Up A Hill

by John Mayall
John Mayall

Biography:

John Mayall (born November 29, 1933) is a pioneering English blues singer, songwriter, guitarist, keyboard player and harmonica player.

John Mayall is often referred to as the "Father of the British blues." His well-known band is still called John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers. They started out in the late 1950s in England, using Chicago style blues as a starting basis for their sound, which has evolved from album to album. And while at one point John Mayall was playing a fairly jazzy sound, he has always come back to the blues.

G# C# B D#
Every morning bout half past eight,
My Mummer wakes me says,"Don't be late",
Get to the office, tryin' to concentrate,
C#
My life is just a slow train crawling up a hill.
-
G# C# B D#
So I stop one day to figure it out,
I'll quit my job without a shadow of a doubt,
To sing the blues that I know all about,
C#
My life is just a slow train crawling up a hill.
-
C#* F#*
Minute after minute,
C* F/C
Second after second,
A# D# G#
Hour after hour goes by,
C#* F#*
Working for a rich man,
C* F/C
Staying just a poor man,
A# D# G#
Never stop to wonder why.
-
So here I am in London town,
A better scene I'm gonna be around,
The kind of music that won't bring me down,
My life is just a slow train crawling up a hill.

Never stop to wonder why.

A better scene I'm gonna be around,
The kind of music that won't bring me down,
G# C# B C#* C# B G#
Life is just a slow train crawling up a hill
