Sometimes Good Guys  Standells



        E   A    D   A    [2X]
Verse 1:

        I'm a p[E]oor boy b[A]orn in a r[D]ubble  [A]
        And s[E]ome say my m[A]anners ain't the b[D]est   [A]
        And s[E]ome of my fr[A]iends, yeah, they b[D]een in real tr[A]ouble
        And s[E]ome say I'm no b[A]etter than the r[D]est    [A]

Chorus:

        But [2,3: So] tell your m[B]ama and your papa   [B]   [C]   [B]
                      [N.C.]             E   A   D   A  [2: repeat E-A-D-A]
Sometimes good guys don't wear white, yeah

Verse 2:

Every day, baby, I work hard
And it's true at night I spend the restless time
But those rich kids and all their lazy money
Can't hold a candle to mine

[repeat cborus] 

        G[G]ood guys, bad guys, wh[C]ich is which
        The wh[G]ite-collar worker or the d[C]igger in the ditch
        And, w[G]ho's to say who's a b[C]etter man
        When I've a[B]lways done the best I can
[repeat intro] 
Verse 3:

A-bad words and dirty minds
All those messed-up chicks of the changing times
White pills and easy livin'
Can't replace the love I'm givin'

[repeat cborus] 

Coda [rant over E-A-D-A to fade]:
Ha, I mean to tell you
You better tell your mama and your papa somethin'
I'll split, I'll find myself another chick, yeah
Ah, just for kicks
You think those guys in the white collars are better than
I am? Then flake off!
You don't dig this long hair? Get yourself a crewcut, baby!
        Yeah!  I mean what I say!  I don't need nobody, baby [fade]
