Intro
[A] [E] [A]
Verse 1
[A] [D] [A]
A lonely town, a lonely street, a lonely room where I can't sleep
[A] [E]
She's on my mind, I think about her endlessly
[A] [D] [A]
He bought her big blue diamond rings, a car and other costly things
[E] [A] [A7]
But can he buy the kind of love she gave to me?
Chorus
[D] [A]
The kind of love she gave to me, gave it so unselfishly
[A] [E]
We planned a home all of our own, now that can't be
[A] [D] [A]
He'll buy her furs and silk and gowns she never had in Shantytown
[E] [A]
But can he buy the kind of love she gave to me?
[Steel Guitar Solo]
[A] [E] [A]
Verse 2
[A] [D] [A]
She's from across the tracks, you know, where the bright lights never glow
[A] [E]
In Shantytown, we live and love so differently
[A] [D] [A]
She'll have her mansion on the hill, but when that house is cold and still
[E] [A]
Can he buy the kind of love she gave to me?
Chorus
[D] [A]
The kind of love she gave to me, gave it so unselfishly
[A] [E]
We planned a home all of our own, now that can't be
[A] [D] [A]
He'll buy her furs and silk and gowns she never had in Shantytown
[E] [A]
But can he buy the kind of love she gave to me?
