verse 1
Cm7 Bm7
Never sing for my supper
Cm7 Bm7
I never helped my neighbour
Cm7 Bm7
Never do what is proper
Cm7 Bm7
For my fair share of labour
Bbm7
I'm a poor boy
Bbm7
And I'm a rover
Bbm7
Count your coins and
Bbm7 Cm7
Throw them over my shoulder
Bm7
I may grow older
Pre-Chorus
C7
Nobody knows
B7
How cold it grows
Bb7
And nobody sees
C
How shaky my knees
C7
Nobody cares
B7
How steep my stairs
Bb7
And nobody smiles
C
If I cross their stiles
C F7M
Oh poor boy
C F7M
So sorry for himself
C F7M
Oh poor boy
C F7M
So worried for his health
G
You may say every day
Cm7
Where will he stay tonight
Cm7Fm72
verse 2
Cm7 Bm7
Never know what I came for
Cm7 Bm7
Seems that I've forgotten
Cm7 Bm7
Never ask what I came from
Cm7 Bm7
Or how I was begotten
Bbm7
I'm a poor boy
Bbm7
And I'm a ranger
Bbm7
Things I say
Bbm7 Cm7
May seem stranger than Sunday
Bm7
Changing to Monday
Pre-Chorus
C7
Nobody knows
B7
How cold it flows
Bb7
And nobody feels
C
The worn down heels
C7
Nobody?s eyes
B7
Make the skies
Bb7
Nobody spreads
C
Their aching heads
C F7M
Oh poor boy
C F7M
So worried for his life
C F7M
Oh poor boy
C F7M
So keen to take a wife
G
He?s a mess but he?ll say yes
Cm7
If you just dress in white
Cm7 Bm7
Pre-Chorus
C7
Nobody knows
B7
How cold it blows
Bb7
And nobody sees
C
How shaky my knees
C7
Nobody cares
B7
How steep my stairs
Bb7
And nobody smiles
C
If you cross their stiles
C F7M
Oh poor boy
C F7M
So sorry for himself
C F7M
Oh poor boy
C F7M
So worried for his health
G
You may say every day
Cm7
Where will he stay tonight

Oh poor boy

So worried for his life

Oh poor boy
C F7M
So keen to take a wife
C F7M
Oh poor boy
C F7M
So sorry for himself

Oh poor boy
