Nobody Men (Blues) - An MP Original
Nobody Men (Blues) - an MP original very slow blues in A minor. I have recorded this on the Risa LP Electric Ukulele for the solo and single chord tremolo kind of rhythm part. The background rhythm is on my Fender Telecaster Guitar which I haven't played for about five years but just got serviced so it plays like new again... The Risa is the main instrument, but I got inspired getting the fender back in my hands. NB. Forgot to turn my camera/phone on, so here is a photo instead...
The song is about guys who get lost in the modern society, without anything really... Nobody Men. Saw a programme about homelessness in Britain the other day. Terrible that we in this day and age aren't better at taking care of the people on the bottom of society.
Lyrics and chords below:
Nobody Men (Blues)
I’m a nobody man
Tryin’ to do the best I can
Yes I’m a nobody man
Tryin’ to do the best I can
Nobody seems to love me, nobody seems to care
‘Cause there are nobody men everywhere.
I was a nobody before
And I’m a nobody today
Yes, I was a nobody before
And I’m a nobody today
Trying to be somebody
In my own way
I’m looking for a change
But there are no-one at home
I’m looking for a change
But there are no-one at home
Im so tired of walking aimlessly through life,
And I feel oh so alone
There’s a void in my heart
But you can fill it up with tears
Yes, there’s a void in my heart
But you can fill it up with tears
Hey you can help me get out of this misery
With a little love talk in my ears
I’m a nobody man
Tryin’ to be the best that I can
Yes I’m a nobody man
Tryin’ to be the best that I can
Nobody seems to love me, nobody seems to care
‘Cause there are nobody men everywhere.
