The Birth of the Blues

Frank Sinatra

Transposer:

(V) They heard the breeze in the trees Singing weird melodies And they made that the start of the blues. (V) And from a jail came the wail Of a down-hearted frail And they played that as part of the blues. Bridge: From a whippoorwill out on a hill They took a new note Pushed it through a horn til it was born Into a new note. (V) And then they nursed it rehearsed it G+ And gave out the news That the southland gave birth to the blues. Repeat Bridge: (Repeat last verse) Last time: - That the southland gave birth to the blues.

La chanson évoque les origines du blues, décrivant comment des sons provenant de la nature et des émotions humaines profondes ont contribué à donner vie à ce genre musical. On y entend des mélodies étranges qui flottent dans l'air, et les cris de ceux qui souffrent, tous éléments qui s'entrelacent pour former cette musique si riche en histoire et en sentiments. Le contexte se situe dans le sud des États-Unis, un lieu où la douleur et l'espoir se rencontrent. C'est une célébration des racines culturelles et des luttes des gens, qui, malgré les épreuves, ont réussi à exprimer leur vécu à travers cette forme d'art unique.
