Poor Side chords

CAPO: 4th Fret

INTRO: [G] [D] [Am] [D] (2x)

Your [G]dreams they have [D]led to the [Am]poor side of [D]town
Where you [G]fight your way [D]up to a [Am]hole in the [D]ground
Your [Em]old friends don't [D]pass, so you [C]don't make a [D]sound
It [Am]saves you from [C]saying,[D] hello
It [Am]saves you from [C]saying, [D]hello

You [G]live the old [D]saying that [Am]boys will be [D]boys
But you [G]aren't a [D]boy, nor [Am]women your [D]toys
Well then, [Em]don't bang your [D]drum if you [C]don't like the [D]noise
But [Am]you bang a[C]way and com[D]plain
[Am]You bang a[C]way and com[D]plain

You've [G]painted your [D]shell, faked a [Am]smell like a [D]rose
So they [G]come within [D]reach, but [Am]never too [D]close
[Em]You are the [D]one that [C]nobody [D]knows
[Am]You let them [C]think that they [D]do
Oh, [Am]you let them [C]think that they [D]do

That [G]works for a[D]while, then [Am]they get their [D]fill
Of the [G]red-handed [D]thief with his [Am]tongue in the [D]till
Oh, you [Em]only love [D]you and [C]you always [D]will
The [Am]lines to the [C]exits are [D]long
The [Am]lines to the [C]exits are [D]long

You [G]found out too [D]late that [Am]life is too [D]short
Well, your [G]ex-para[D]mour hauled your [Am]ass into [D]court
When [Em]you didn't [D]pay for the [C]child sup[D]port
And [Am]you always [C]act like[D] the man
[Am]You always [C]act like the [D]man

INSTRUMENTAL: [G] [D] [Am] [D] [G] [D] [Am] [D]
[Em] [D] [C] [D] [Am] [C] [D] [Am] [C] [D]

People [G]get more from [D]giving, than [Am]looking to [D]get
And that [G]life you've been [D]leading, it's [Am]leading you [D]yet
There were [Em]lessons you [D]knew that you [C]shouldn't for[D]get
So [Am]now you are [C]writing[D] them down
[Am]Now you are [C]writing them [D]down

'Cause your [G]dreams they have [D]led to the [Am]poor side of [D]town
Where you [G]fight your way [D]up to a [Am]hole in the [D]ground
Your [Em]old friends don't [D]pass you, you [C]don't make a [D]sound
It [Am]saves you from [C]saying,[D] hello
It [Am]saves you from [C]saying, hel[D]lo
