Intro:
 
      C              G  
It's easy to see a poor boy's blues 
             Am          G 
When he's working every day 
       C                 G 
It's harder to be there in his shoes 
        Am              G 
He was born to be that way  


Verse 1: 

       G        C G         Am  
If I tell you tomorrow I'm leaving 
               D                 G  
Would you understand the reason why? 
                  C    G        Am 
A poor boy works hard for his living 
                    D                G 
But a rich man he plays to pass the time  

 

Am      C                G     G/F# Em 
So goodbye, pleased to know you 
Am            C               G 
We had some laughs along the way 
Am     C          G G/F# Em 
But I have to be leaving 
              Am                           D 
And there's nothing you can do to make me stay
