[Verse]
E B E
I was born on the other side of town
B E
Everybody over here just put me down
A E
I never thought about it much
B E
Till the first time I saw you
E B E
Uh oh, what's a poor boy gonna do
[Verse]
E B E
It's bad enough to love you from afar
B E
Me down here and you up where you are
A E
If you hadn't given me that look
B E
That's all it took it's true
E B E
Uh oh, what's a poor boy gonna do
[Chorus]
A E B
Baby what's a poor boy got, not a heck of a lot
E
Just a heart that's true
A E
One thing he sure don't need is
F# B
A heart that bleeds and these lovesick blues
[Verse]
E B E
I know a poor boy can't go far
B E
Baby, maybe someday drive your car
A E B E
I can look in my rear view, into those eyes of blue
E B E
Uh oh what's a poor boy gonna do
[Solo]
E B E
E B E E7
[Chorus]
A E B
Baby what's a poor boy got, not a heck of a lot
E
Just a heart that's true
A E
One thing he sure don't need is
F# B
A heart that bleeds and these lovesick blues
[Verse]
E B E
I know a poor boy can't go far
B E
Baby, maybe someday drive your car
A E B E
And I can look in my rear view, into those eyes of blue
E B E
Uh oh what's a poor boy gonna do
E B E E7
Uh oh what's a poor boy gonna do
