Biografia:
Daffan played steel guitar with bands in the Houston area before starting his own band, Ted Daffan and His Texans. As a band leader, he pioneered the use of the steel guitar as a lead instrument and in solos, a departure from the traditional fiddle sounds used by most country bands. Daffan's clean, distinctive sound -- which combined blues and swing -- and his songs influenced artists for years to come.
Like "Born to Lose," a number of Daffan songs were recorded by other artists.

BORN TO LOSE
Words and Music by Ted Daffan
[C] Born To Lose, I've [F] lived my life in [C] vain
Every [F] dream has only brought me [C] pain
All my life I've always [C7] been so [F] blue
Born To [G] Lose, and now I'm losing [C] you.
Born To Lose, it seems so hard to bear
How I long to always have you near
You've grown tired and now you say we're thru
Born To Lose, and now I'm losing you.
Born To Lose, my every hope is gone
It's so hard to face an empty dawn
You were all the happiness I knew
Born To Lose, and now I'm losing you.
There's no use to dream of happiness
All I see is only loneliness
All my life, I've always been so blue
Born To Lose, and now I'm losing you.
