There Goes My Baby Chords

(ver. 2)
Drifters
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
                  There Goes My Baby - The Drifters
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is one of my favorite "old time" songs. I believe there isn't even
guitar in the song, but if you follow this and play along then you can
perform it on your own for fun or whatever, it still accompanies well.

Tuning: Standard

CAPO on 2!! (all chords relative to capo)
- I will not be showing strumming as the changes can easily be heard.
This is a simple rhythm.

Now just do the verse and chorus again until end of song!
I told you it was easy.

*IF you DO NOT have/use a capo then try this.
**If you would rather play the Barre chords then those are in
parenthesis.
INTRO/CHORUS:
    A        F#m        D        E      E7
e|--0-(5)----2----------2-(5)----0-(7)--0-(7)------------------------------|
B|--2-(5)----2----------3-(7)----0-(9)--3-(9)------------------------------|
G|--2-(6)----2----------2-(7)----1-(9)--1-(7)------------------------------|
D|--2-(7)----4----------0-(7)----2-(9)--2-(9)------------------------------|
A|--0-(7)----4------------(5)----2-(7)--2-(7)------------------------------|
E|----(5)----2-------------------0------0----------------------------------|

Verse chords go in this progression: A, F#m, D, E, A, F#m, D, E, E7
Then back to chorus.
Have fun.
