Tom: G
E7 Gbm7
How can you tell me how much you miss me
E7 Gbm7
When the last time I saw you you wouldn't even kiss me
A Abm7
That rich guy you been seein'
Gbm7 A
Must have put you down
E A
So welcome back, baby
E
To the poor side of town
To him you were nothing but a little plaything (little plaything, doo-wah)
Not much more than an overnight fling (overnight fling, doo-wah)
To me you were the greatest thing
This boy had ever found
And girl, it's hard to find nice things
On the poor side of town
D G7
I can't blame you for tryin'
C Bm
I'm tryin' to make it too
C Bm
I've got one little hangup, baby
Am G B E7
I just can't make it without you (without you, ooh, without you, aaaah)
So tell me, are you gonna stay now (gonna stay now, doo-wah)
Will you stand by me all the way now (all the way now, doo-wah)
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 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
