My Guy     Mary Wells  posted by Rick in Macon.  Original key is Bb. G is easier to play and sing (I think).

Verse 1:

Gmaj7            G6       Gmaj7     G6       Gmaj7  G6  Gmaj7  G6
 Nothing you can say, can tear me a-way from my guy.
Gmaj7              G6           Gmaj7      G6          B7
 Nothing you could do, 'cos I'm stuck like glue, to my guy.

Chorus 1:

    Am7            D7          Am        D7
I'm sticking to my guy, like a stamp to a letter;
     Am7      D7           Am (n.c)
Like birds of feather; we, stick together.
      G                 E7       A7              D7        G      Am  Bm Am

 Nothing you could do, could make me be un-true, to my guy.
Gmaj7              G6         Gmaj7          G6         B7
 Nothing you could buy, could make me tell a lie, to my guy.

Chorus 2:

  Am7     D7      Am      D7
I gave my guy my, word of honor;
 Am    D         Am      n.c.
 To be faithful; and I'm gonna.
      G          E7         A7           D7      G      Am  Bm Am
You'd best be be-lieving; I won't be de-ceiving my guy.

Bridge 1:

     Am7         D         Am         D
As a matter of o-pinion; I think he's tops;
 Am         D            G            Gmaj7
 My opinion is; he's the cream of the crop.
     Em        Bm        Em    Bm
As a matter of taste; to be ex-act;
A7                   D7
 He's my ideal, as a matter of fact.

   Gmaj7        G6         Gmaj7   G6         Gmaj7  G6  Gmaj7  G6
No muscle bound man, could take my hand, from my guy.
   Gmaj7    G6               Gmaj7    G6          B7
No handsome face, could ever take the place of my guy.

Chorus 3:

   Am7      D7  Am    D7
He may not be a movie star;
            Am7            D7     Am (n.c.)
But when it comes to being happy; we are.
              G      E7           A7        D7       Gmaj7  G6, Am  Bm
There's not a man to-day, who can take me a-way from my guy.
