[Verse 1]
         D
Well I'm standin' at the crossroads
G                           D
 With my head hung down and cryin'
         G
Yes, I'm standin' at the crossroads
                           D
With my head hung down and cryin'
           A
Well I was looking for my baby
G                     | D D7 G Gm | D A    |
 And I know she's not around

[Verse 2]
       D
I work hard for my baby
G                     D
 She treats me like a slave
  D
I work hard for my baby
G                         D
 And she treats me like a slave
         A
Yes, she must be tired of livin'
G                             | D D7 G Gm | D A    |
 I'll put her six feet in the grave

[Verse 3]
         D
Well I'm standin' at the crossroads
G                   D
 And my baby's not around
G                                              D
 Standin' at the crossroads, and my baby's not around
A
Well, I begin to wonder
G                       | D D7 G Gm | D A    |
 If poor Elmore's second down

[Verse 4]   
    D
I'm standin' here waitin' baby
G                          D
 With my heart right in my hand
     G
Yes, standin' here waitin' baby
                          D
With my heart right in my hand
            A
Well, I was looking for my baby
G                          | D D7 G Gm | D   C#7 D7
 And she's out with another man
