POOR SIDE OF TOWN

Key:Eb

How can you tell me 
-5  -5   3   -3*  3
how much you miss me
3    3   -1*  -2  -2
When the last time I saw you, 
3     3   -5   -3* 3 -3*  3
you would-n't ev-en kiss me
-2    3   -1* 3  -1* -2  -2
That rich guy you've been see-in'
4    -5*   4   -3*     3  -3*3-3*4  
Must have put you down
3     3    3   3  -2-1*
So wel-come back ba-by
-1*-5*  4    -3* 3-2-1*
To the poor side of town
-1* -2  3    -2  -1* -1*

To him you were noth-in' 
-5  -5 -5   3    -3*  3
but a lit-tle play-thing
3   3 -1* -1* -2    -2
Not much more than an ov-er-night fling
-5  -3*3 -3*3  -2  3  3  3   -2    -1*  
To me you were the great-est thing 
4  -5* 4  -3*   3   -3*  3-3* 4
this boy had ev-er found
3     3   3   3 3  -2-1*
And girl it's hard to find nice things
-1* -1*  -1*   -5* 4   -3* 3-2   -1*
On the poor side of town
-1* -2  3    -2  -1* -1*

I can't blame you for try-in'
4* 4*    4*    4* -3* -3* -3*
I'm try-in' to make it too
-5* -5* -5* -3* 4*  4* -3*
I've got one lit-tle hang up  ba- by
-5*  -5* -5*  4* -3*  -3* -3* -3*3*-2*
I  just can't make it with-out you
-2* -3* -3*   -3*  3*  -2* -3* -3*


So tell me, are you gonna stay now
Will you stand by me girl all the way now
With you by my side
They can't keep us down
Together we can make it baby
From the poor side of town

(So tell me how much you love me)
(Come be near to me and say you need me now)

Oh, with you by my side
This world can't keep us down
Together we can make it baby
From the poor side of town
