Emaj7                  F#m7   
Doo-do-do-wah, shoobee-doobee   
Emaj7                  F#m7   
Doo-do-do-wah, shoobee-doobee   
Emaj7                             F#m7   
How can you tell me, how much you miss me   
Emaj7                        F#m7                            
When the last time I saw you 
                          A  
You wouldn't even kiss me   
                  G#m7        F#m7    
That rich guy you been seein'   
                  A   
Must have put you down   
   E                  A   
So welcome back, baby   
                    E   
To the poor side of town   
   Emaj7	   
To him you were nothing 
             F#m7                         Emaj7 
But a little plaything, little plaything, doo-wah   
                          
Not much more 
            F#m7                              A 
Than an overnight fling, overnight fling, doo-wah   
                   G#m7           F#m7 
To me you were the greatest thing   
                  A  
This boy had ever found   
    E                                   A     
And girl, it's hard to find nice things   
                    E 
On the poor side of town   
D                     G      C 
I can't blame you for tryin'   
              Bm          C 
I'm tryin' to make it too   
                    Bm   
I've got one little hangup, baby   
Am                     G        
I just can't make it without you 
             B7                Emaj7 
Without you, ooh, without you, aaaah   
                           F#m7   
So tell me, are you gonna stay now 
                    Emaj7 
Gonna stay now, doo-wah   

Will you stand by me girl 
        F#m7                          A  
All the way now, all the way now, doo-wah   
               G#m7 F#m7  
With you by my side   
                   A 
They can't keep us down   
  E                           A 
Together we can make it, baby   
                      E    Emaj7 
From the poor side of town    
                        F#m7    Emaj7 
So tell me how much you love me   
                            F#m7 
Come near to me and say you need me now   
         A         G#m7 F#m7  
Oh, with you by my side   
                         A 
This world can't keep us down   
  E                           A    
Together we can make it, baby   
                      E    Emaj7 
From the poor side of town 
                       F#m7   
Doo-do-do-wah, shoobee-doobee   
Emaj7                  F#m7   
Doo-do-do-wah, shoobee-doobee 
Emaj7                  F#m7   
Doo-do-do-wah, shoobee-doobee   
Emaj7                  F#m7   Emaj7 
Doo-do-do-wah, shoobee-doobee...
