4 -4 5 5 5 5 -5 5 -4 -5 5 4
I ad-mit that in the past I’ve been a nas-ty.

4 4 -4 5 5 5 4 -5 5
They were-n’t kid-ding when they called me

-4 4 -4
well, a witch

4 4 -4 -4 -4 -4 4
But you’ll find that now-a-days

4 -4 -4 -4 -4 4
I’ve men-ded all my ways

4 4 4 4 4 -4 -4 4 -4 5
Re-pen-ted, seen the light, and made a switch,

(SPOKEN) True? Yes.

4 -4 5 5 5 5 -5 5 -4 -2 2 4 -4
And I for-tu-nate-ly know a lit-tle of mag-ic.

4 -4 5 5 5 5 -5 5 -4 4 -4
It’s a tal-ent that I al-ways have pos-sessed.

4 4 -4 -4 -4 -4 4
And here late-ly please don’t laugh

4 -4 -4 -4 -4 4
I use it on be-half

4 4 4 4 4 4 -4 -4 4 -4 5
of the mis-er-a-ble lone-ly and de-pressed

5 -6 -6
pa-thet-ic,

(CHORUS)

4 -3 -4 4 -3 4
Poor Un-for-tu-nate Souls,

5 -3 5 -3
In pain in need.

5 5 -5 -5 -5 5 5 5
This one long-ing to be thin-ner

5 5 -5 -5 -5 5 5
That one wants to get the girl.

5 5 5 -6 -6 7 -6 -6
And do I help them? Yes in-deed.

5 7 -6 -7 7 -6 7
Those Poor Un-for-tu-nate Souls,

5 -3 5 -3
So sad so true.

VERSE 2

5 5 -5 -5 -5 -5 5 5
They come flock-ing to my caul-dron

5 5 -6 -6 -6 -6 7
Cry-ing «Spells, Ur-su-la, please!»

-6 -6 -6 -6 5 2 -3
And I help them? Yes, I do.

5 5 -5 -5 -5 -5 -5
Now it’s hap-pened once or twice,

-5 -5 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6
Some-one could-n’t pay the price,

-3 -3 -3 -3 -3 -3 -3 -3 3
And I’m a-fraid I had to rake ’em

-3 -3 4
Cross the coals.

(SPOKEN)
Yes, I’ve had the odd com-plaint.

-3 -3 4 4 -4 4 4 5
But on the whole I’ve been a saint,

-3b -3 4 -3 -4 4 -3 -3
To those Poor Un-for-tu-nate Souls.

(SPOKEN)
You’ll have your looks.
Your pretty face.
And don’t underestimate the importance of body
language! Hah!

VERSE 3

4 5 5 5 5 -5 5 -4 -5 5 4
The men up there don’t like a lot of blab-ber.

5 5 5 5 5 -5 5 -4 4 -4
They think a girl who gos-sips is a bore.

4 4 -4 -4 -4 -4 4
Yes, on land it’s much pre-fered

4 4 4 -4 -4 -4 -4
for la-dies not to say a word.

4 4 4 4 4 4 4 -4 -4 4 -4 5
And af-ter all dear what is i-dle prat-tle for?

5 5 5 5 5 -5
Come on! They’re not all that

5 -4 -4 5 4 -4 4
im-pressed with con-ver-sa-tion.

-4 5 5 5 5 -5 5 -4 -4 -4
True gen-tle-men a-void it when they can.

4 4 -4 -4 -4 -4 4
But they dote and swoon and fawn

4 4 -4 -4 -4 -4 4
On a la-dy who’s with-drawn.

4 4 4 4 4 -4 -4 4 -4 5
It’s she who holds her tongue who gets her man.

5 -3 -3 4 -3 -4 4 -3 4
Come on you poor un-for-tu-nate soul!

5 5 -3 5 5 -3
Go a-head! Make your choice.

5 5 -5 -5 -5 -5 5 5
I’m a ver-y bus-y wom-an

5 5 -3 -3 -3 -3 2
and I have-n’t got all day.

-3 -3 -3 -3 4 -3 -3
It won’t cost much, just your voice.

5 4 -3 -4 4 -3 4
You poor un-for-tu-nate soul.

5 -3 5 -3
Its sad, but true.

5 5 -5 -5 -5 -5 5 5 5
If you want to cross a bridge, my sweet

5 -3 -3 -3 -3 2
you’ve got to pay the toll

5 5 -5 -5 -5 -5 5
Take a gulp and take a breath

5 5 5 -6 -6 -6 -6 5
and go a-head and sign the scroll

5 5 -5 -5 -5 -5 5 5 5
(Flot-sam Jet-sam, now I’ve got her boys,

5 -6 -6 -6 -6 7 (hold it)
the boss is on a roll!)

-6 7 7 -7 8 8 8 (Hold it)
This poor un-for-tu-nate soul!

So wel-come back ba-by
-1*-5* 4 -3* 3-2-1*
To the poor side of town

To him you were noth-in’
-5 -5 -5 3 -3* 3
but a lit-tle play-thing
3 3 -1* -1* -2 -2
Not much more than an ov-er-night fling
-5 -3*3 -3*3 -2 3 3 3 -2 -1*
To me you were the great-est thing
4 -5* 4 -3* 3 -3* 3-3* 4
this boy had ev-er found
3 3 3 3 3 -2-1*
And girl it’s hard to find nice things
-1* -1* -1* -5* 4 -3* 3-2 -1*
On the poor side of town
-1* -2 3 -2 -1* -1*

I can’t blame you for try-in’
4* 4* 4* 4* -3* -3* -3*
I’m try-in’ to make it too
-5* -5* -5* -3* 4* 4* -3*
I’ve got one lit-tle hang up ba- by
-5* -5* -5* 4* -3* -3* -3* -3*3*-2*
I just can’t make it with-out you
-2* -3* -3* -3* 3* -2* -3* -3*

So tell me, are you gonna stay now
Will you stand by me girl all the way now
With you by my side
They can’t keep us down
Together we can make it baby
From the poor side of town

(So tell me how much you love me)
(Come be near to me and say you need me now)

Oh, with you by my side
This world can’t keep us down
Together we can make it baby
From the poor side of town

She took me back to the Hyatt House
I don’t want to talk about it

Poor, poor pitiful me
Poor, poor pitiful me
These young girls won’t let me be
Lord have mercy on me
Woe is me

(Well, I met a girl from the Vieux Carre`
Down in Yokahama
She picked me up and she throwed me down
I said, «Please don’t hurt me, Mama»)

Lyrics:

Lonesome cowboy, lonesome cowboy,
You’re a long long way from home
Lonesome cowboy, lonesome cowboy,
You’ve a long long way to roam

I’m a poor lonesome cowboy
I’m a long long way from home
And this poor lonesome cowboy
Has got a long long way to roam
Over mountains over prairies
From dawn till day is done
My horse and me keep riding
Into the setting sun

Lonesome cowboy, lonesome cowboy,
You’re a long long way from home
Lonesome cowboy, lonesome cowboy,
You’ve a long long way to roam

There are guys who just figure
Have a problem with a gun
And a finger on a trigger
Can be dangerous, hurt someone
But problems solve much better
By keeping calm and true
My horse and me keep riding
I ain’t nobody’s fool

Lonesome cowboy, lonesome cowboy,
You’re a long long way from home
Lonesome cowboy, lonesome cowboy,
You’ve a long long way to roam

I’m a poor lonesome cowboy
But it doesn’t bother me
‘Cause this poor lonesome cowboy
Prefers a horse for company
Got nothing against women
But I wave them all goodbye
My horse and me keep riding
We don’t like being tied

Lonesome cowboy, lonesome cowboy,
You’re a long long way from home
Lonesome cowboy, lonesome cowboy,
You’ve a long long way to roam

The End

Pomp and Circumstance — Graduation Walk Song

Here is a melody to practice a couple of the hole 3 bends on the C
Harmonica. I am fairly new at this bending, so let me know if I didn’t
tab it correctly and I’ll fix it. Be advised that this may not be in
the original key.
