G
I was a boy I was a good little boy
D
Wantin in the playground fun
They said ah na ney boy you can't play
G
Cause you were born a poor man's son
G
I met a girl she was a pretty little girl
D
Would you be my only one
She said meet me where nobody can see
G
Cause you were born a poor man's son
C G
I spent all my lifetime
C
Thinking what I coulda done
G D
While I worked my fingers to the bone
G
I met a man he was business man
D
I said I'm a hard working son of a gun
He said you know the rules
You should've stayed in school
G
Cause you were born a poor man's son
SOLO
C G
I spent all my lifetime
C
Thinking what I coulda done
G D
While I worked my fingers to the bone
G
I met a guy he was a crazy guy
D
He said I'm going to get me some
Let's go across the tracks where
They keep that jack
G
All we need is a little black gun
G
They got the hounds and the tracked us down
D
They said we know what you have done
You're gonna do the time it's gonna fit the crime
G
You shoulda shot a poor man's son
D G
You shoulda shot a poor man's son
D C D G
You shoulda shot a poor man's son
