Barclay James Harvest.
Poor Boy Blues (Les Holroyd)
Intro.
It's e[C]asy to see a po[G]or boy's blues
When he's wor[Am]king every d[G]ay
It's ha[C]rder to be there i[G]n his shoes
He was b[Am]orn to be that w[G]ay
Verse.1
If I te[G]ll you to[C]mo[G]rrow I'm l[Am]eaving
Would you under[D]stand the reason w[G]hy?
A poor boy works h[C]ard f[G]or his li[Am]ving
But a rich man he pl[D]ays to pass the t[G]ime
Ch.
[Am]So goodb[C]ye, pleased to kn[G]ow you[G/F#][Em]
[Am]We had some la[C]ughs along the w[G]ay
[Am]But I h[C]ave to be l[G]ea[G/F#]ving[Em]
And there's no[Am]thing you can do to make me s[D]tay
Repeat verse 1+ch.
