"Blues" is an indigenous black American music form usually based around a twelve-bar harmonic pattern: four tonic, two subdominant, two tonic, two dominant and two tonic. The rhythm is usually a slow 12/8 time. The lyrics are often bewailing personal tragedy or hardship--singing songs of this kind could be consoling when trying to live a difficult life.
