#1.
  F                                     C
I play guitar in a little bar, down the street 

from here.
C
They pay me to come and to hum and to strum for 
    F
the folks to hear.
F
But I think it's unfair, when I'm sitting up there 
       Bb
and my baby walks in.
              F                       C               
And I have to play like a friend..oh, for her and him.

#2.
    F                                  C
Oh, how it hurts to see her flirt with someone else.
C                                      F
And oh, how it aches to see her make a fool of herself.
F                                      Bb
I swear I'd leave if I didn't need the dough, my friend.
             F                     C
It's nothing but a sin..to have to play and pretend..
    F            C F C
for her and him.

#3.
    F                              C
The boss man say I gotta play from nine till three.
C                                     F
They come in each night at ten, for a while, then leave.
F                                    F7
That's when I play with soul and the customers know that 
    Bb
I'm dyin' within.
             F                                     C
Cause I know where they've been..and where they're goin' 
            F
again..just her and him.

again..just her and him..(Fade.)
