Chords for American Bandstand 1966 - The Poor Side Of Town, Johnny Rivers

The last trip I went on that was, you know, if [Em] any real interest was [B] our tour of Vietnam,
Ann-Margaret and I went together, you know, we were [D#] there for 18 days and it was really an
unbelievable experience.
[N] Johnny, thank you ever so much.
Hold on, Becky.
This is that sound you
were telling us about a few weeks ago that you thought would be something new and different
for you.

I'm [C] [Bm] trying to make it to [C] a [Bm] little hang up, baby.
[Am] I just can't [G] make it without you.
[B] _ _ [E] So tell me, are you [F#m] gonna stay now?
_ [E] Will you stand by me, [F#m] girl, all the way now?
_ [A] With [G#m] you by my [F#m] side, they [A] can't keep us down.
[E] Together we can make it, baby, from the poor side of town.
_ _ _ _ _ _ [F#m] _ _
_ _ [E] _ _ _ _ [F#m] _ _
_ [A] With you by [G#m] my side, [F#m] this world can't keep
