verse 1 

            G                       D                          G 
We've got a Styrofoam cooler in the back of my old Chevy truck 
                                D                          G 
Reaching over the side for brew 'cause the tailgates stuck 
            C                                                  G C 
A couple of lines in the water, hey, I think you've got a bite 
G/D                    D               G 
I wonder what the Poor Folks are doing tonight? 
              G                                 D                             G 
We could have drove this old truck on into town and caught the 9 o'clock show 
                                              D                      G 
But I'd just as soon be sitting here with you listening to the radio 
              C                                        G     C 
I've got your name on my left arm, and your body in my right 
G/D                    D               G 
I wonder what the Poor Folks are doing tonight?

C                                        G 
The ones out there who ain't got nothing on us 
                                                     D 
They got everything else in this world, but it ain't enough 
C                               G           G/B       C 
Wishing they were the owners of a love like yours and mine 
G/D               D                    G 
I wonder what the Poor Folks are doing tonight?

G                                 D                       G 
You know the truth is, you and me can't buy a whole lotta fancy nice things 
                                    D                          G 
And we ain't on no first name basis with the folks down at the bank 
C                            G                    C 
But we know we've got it all when we turn out the lights 
G/D      D                                 G 
I wonder what the Poor Folks are doing to- night?
