More Than A Poor Boy Can Give lyrics and chords

More Than A Poor Boy Can Give
Written and recorded by Bobby Bare



C                          G7           C
There goes an old love the keeper of my heart
                         G7               C
It seems like a lifetime since we've been apart
               C7         F                 C
Her love was a treasure a poor boy couldn't hold
                  G7           C
She wanted riches diamonds and gold
                  G7           C
She wanted riches diamonds and gold

                             G7           C
I taught her to love and she taught me to cry
                               G7         C
Then I learned to smile with a tear in my eye
              C7           F         C
I offered her true love as long as I live
                           G7             C
But she wanted more than a poor boy could give
                           G7             C
Yes she wanted more than a poor boy could give

                                     G7           C
She seems to be so happy in that big house on the hill
                                    G7             C
She pretends that she don't know me but I love her still
            C7           F              C
Without her love I've no reason left to live
                       G7             C
She wanted more than a poor boy could give
                           G7             C
Yes she wanted more than a poor boy could give
