Ev-'ry-bo-dy's with the one they love

Keep a-search-in' all a-round

 -2  -2  -2  -2   -3    -2 -2   -3" -2
Look-in' for my street cor-ner   girl


Chorus:

Verse 3: (Play like verse 2.)

In the bars with the men who play gui-tars
Sing-in', drink-in' and re-mem-b'rin' the time
My lit-tle lov-er does the mid-night shift
She balls a-round all the time
I guess there's just one thing 
A-left for me to do
So I pack my bag and move on my way
Cause I got a wor-ried mind
Shar-in' what I thought was mine
Gon-na leave her where the gui-tars play



Chorus:
 

Background vocal:

      Hey,    hey, 
       -4      -4    
 Or: (-4 -3)( -4 -3)
 
 What    can      I     say
   4     -2      -2     -2
( 4 3)( -2 -1)( -2 -1)( -2 -1) 
Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
