Well I get into the game, but it's always the same
                      G
I'm the man with the name Hip Eponymous Poor Boy, Poor Boy
                                                D
Call me whatever you may, I ain't stoppin' the train
                      G
I get a feel for the fame Hip Eponymous Poor Boy, poor boy


       G
And I know that I can't defeat you
                 G
Yea, you don't worry now, I ain't going to preach to you
               C
Well, there ya go
                               G
But I'll be going right there with you
                      G
Yeah wherever you'll be, you'll be lookin' at me
G
But don't get out of your chair
                   G
Put a bow in your hair, you might be makin' 'em stare
                          G
So leave the care to the poor boy, the poor boy
                            G
And that's the name of the game
                     G
Keep on stayin' the same, ain't nobody to blame
                G
Nobody but the poor boy, the poor boy


       G
Well okay, so you fell asleep today
                G
What's funny to me though is that you did that yesterday
                    C
You might think I'm mad
                                       G
For doing all the things that I don't need to do
                             G
But while you're laughin' at me, well I'll be laughin' at you


                   D                 
So I get into the game, but always keep it the same
                        G
And I'll be usin' your name, 
                               G
but they'll be yellin' at me "Poor boy,poor boy"
                       D  
But I'll be happy for you, cause you got nothin' to do
                          G
And I'll be singin' the blues, walkin' around singin' "Poor boy,poor boy"


     G
Sometimes a cold shiver comes over me
                G
And it turns me on when the song takes over me
      G 
But alright, I can't fight it the odds are against me
                  D
But I can't sit still
                       G
Because I know that I will


                           D
And you'll be watching me girl, takin' over the world
                  G          
Let the stripes unfurl, gettin' rich singin' "Poor boy, poor boy"
                       D 
And I'll be comin' to play, I do it every day
                     G
And the title will stay, Hip Eponymous Poor Boy, poor boy (Yeah)
