1.    Poor me,          wa-a-ha-a-ho,        poor me,           wa-a-ha-a-ho.

      F                              G

    sorry word leaping around my head,

    I used to hold you, baby,        so tight,         each night,      that's right,

    love’s unkind and love’s untrue, oh, why did love pick out you
