Song: Take Good Care of the Poor Boy
Band: Sloan
album: Between the Bridges
tabbed by: Adam Bishop <grenfell_@hotmail.com>


Lyrics are from www.murderecords.com, but Adam Oystreck told me where
to find them :) I didn't do the part at the very end, because I
consider that to be part of Delivering Maybes, despite the fact that
the CD player doesn't seem to agree with me.

C                                          F
You've got lots to day don't take this too seriously
         Bb
(There's plenty of believers)
C                              F
We hang on every word almost deliriously
Bb
(Yes we're the believers)
C
You could say it's borderline fanatic
F                   Bb
Hit the chord we're basically ecstatic
C               F                  Bb
Can't afford to lose you can't you see

D                     Bb
Take good care of the poor boy
             F                        C
Oh well he's new in town and he won't settle down
D                     Bb
Take good care of the poor boy
             F                        C
Oh well he's new in town and he won't settle down

G        Eb5  Bb5  F5

You won't sit around waiting for it to happen to you
(There's plenty who will listen)
If you hide yourself away your country may honour you
(But a brighter future glistens)
Pulled alarms in shows of mere defiance
Draw the looks, don't choose this reliance
Crown of our creation we're on our knees

Chorus

Good luck saving the poor boy
If the city's down and he's gone underground

G          Gsus4    G      Eb5  Bb5  F5
Ooh if you leave us behind
G                   Gsus4         G    Eb5  Bb5  F5
The songs they will stand for all time
G          Gsus4    G      Eb5  Bb5  F5
Ooh if you leave us behind
G                             Gsus4       G     Eb5  Bb5  F5
There'll be streets with your name on the sign

    Bb
And oh Lord...

Chorus

C    F    Bb

C                                         F
Hey poor boy hey poor boy you'll never settle down
          Bb
(Never settle down)
C                                         F
Hey poor boy hey poor boy you'll never settle down
          Bb
(Never settle down)
C                                         F
Hey poor boy hey poor boy you'll never settle down
          Bb
(Never settle down)
