 Barclay James Harvest.
 Poor Boy Blues (Les Holroyd)
 
 Intro.
       C              G             
 It's easy to see a poor boy's blues
              Am          G 
 When he's working every day
        C                 G          
 It's harder to be there in his shoes
         Am              G 
 He was born to be that way
 
 Verse.1
 
        G        C G         Am    
 If I tell you tomorrow I'm leaving
                D                 G  
 Would you understand the reason why?
                   C    G        Am  
 A poor boy works hard for his living
                     D                G  
 But a rich man he plays to pass the time
 
 Ch.
 
 Am      C                G     G/F# Em 
 So goodbye, pleased to know you
 Am            C               G 
 We had some laughs along the way
 Am     C          G G/F# Em 
 But I have to be leaving
               Am                           D  
 And there's nothing you can do to make me stay
 
 Repeat verse 1+ch.
