POOR PEOPLE ? ALAN PRICE


            E                   E4
Poor people are poor people 

        E6                    E7
And they don't understand

     [accord]A7+[/accord]                     G# F#m
A man's got to make whatever he wants

      [accord]A7+[/accord]                      B7
And take it with his own hands.


   E               E4
Poor people stay poor people 
        E6                     E7
And they never get to see

    [accord]A7+[/accord]                    G#   F#m
Someone's got to win in the human race
      [accord]A7+[/accord]                   B7
If it isn't you, then it has to be me.


      [accord]A7+[/accord]                  Edim
So smile while you're makin' it
   [accord]A7+[/accord]                  Edim
Laugh while you're takin' it
    [accord]A7+[/accord]                  Edim
Even though you're fakin' it
 [accord]A7+[/accord]         B7       E
Nobody's gonna know.

[accord]A7+[/accord]          B7       E
Nobody's gonna know.

 

           E                     
No use mumbling.

      E4
It's no use grumbling.

E6                   E7
Life just isn't fair
          [accord]A7+[/accord]
There's no easy days

         F#m
There's no easy ways

          [accord]A7+[/accord]               B7
Just get out there and do it!

         [accord]A7+[/accord]           Edim

And sing and they'll sing your song

   [accord]A7+[/accord]               Edim

Laugh while you're getting on

   [accord]A7+[/accord]               Edim

Smile and they'll string along
     [accord]A7+[/accord]     B7       E
And nobody's gonna know.

     [accord]A7+[/accord]  B7       E
Nobody's gonna know.

     [accord]A7+[/accord]  B7       E
Nobody's gonna know.

     [accord]A7+[/accord]       B7       E
And nobody's gonna know.

[accord]A7+[/accord]       Edim     [accord]A7+[/accord]      Edim?
