Capo on 2nd 

D5                 A5             D5 
I was born on the other side of town 
               A5                  D5 
Everybody over there just puts me down 
G5               D5                            A5           D5               
I never thought about it much, 'til the first time I saw you 
                A5              D5 
Uh-oh, what's a poor boy gonna do 

(Verse 2 played same as first) 

It's bad enough to love you from afar 

Me down here and you up where you are 

If you hadn't given me that look, that's all it took it's true 

U-oh, what's a poor boy gonna do 


G5             D5                   A5         
Baby what's a poor boy got, not a heck of a lot 
       D5   
Just a heart that's true 
G5             D5                     E5 
One thing he sure don't need is a heart that bleeds 
          A5 
And these lovesick blues 

(Played the same as verse 1&2) 
 
I know a poor boy can't go far 
Baby, maybe someday drive your car 
I can look in my rearview, into those eyes of blue 
Uh-oh what's a poor boy gonna do
