Well I get into the game, but it's always the same

                      G                  C        D     G

                                                D

                      G                  C         D    G

       C                  G
And I know that I can't defeat you

                 D                           G
Yea, you don't worry now, I ain't going to preach to you

Yeah wherever you'll be, you'll be lookin' at me

                           G
But don't get out of your chair

                   D                             G
Put a bow in your hair, you might be makin' 'em stare

                          C             D    G
So leave the care to the poor boy, the poor boy

                            G
And that's the name of the game

                     D                     G
Keep on stayin' the same, ain't nobody to blame

                C             D    G
Nobody but the poor boy, the poor boy

       C                G
Well okay, so you fell asleep today

                D                                G
What's funny to me though is that you did that yesterday

                    C
You might think I'm mad

                                       G
For doing all the things that I don't need to do

                             D                             G
But while you're laughin' at me, well I'll be laughin' at you

                   G                            D                 
So I get into the game, but always keep it the same

                        G
And I'll be usin' your name, 

                               C        D    G
but they'll be yellin' at me "Poor boy,poor boy"

                       G                             D  
But I'll be happy for you, cause you got nothin' to do

                          G                              C       D    G
And I'll be singin' the blues, walkin' around singin' "Poor boy,poor boy"

     C                             G
Sometimes a cold shiver comes over me

                D                            G
And it turns me on when the song takes over me

      C                                       G 
But alright, I can't fight it the odds are against me

                  D
But I can't sit still

                       G
Because I know that I will

                           G                      D
And you'll be watching me girl, takin' over the world

                  G                            C         D    G          
Let the stripes unfurl, gettin' rich singin' "Poor boy, poor boy"

                       G                   D 
And I'll be comin' to play, I do it every day

                     G                  C         D    G
