Poor Thing Chords

(ver. 1)
Joe Jackson
                  Em        
Just think of the millions and millions of people
    D          Em           D       G    
Who could have existed, but didn't exist
     D       G    G/F#
Yet here we are
        Em                                   D
And the millions and millions of planets and stars
       Em         D       G
Never listed on anyone's list
    D        G  F#m B
And here we are

    Bm     E    Bm     E     Bm      E
            But oh... what a life it is
Am    D        Am       D    Am 
      Oh... what can we do
    D
With you

G     G/F#   Em          Em7      C   
Poor thing, everything's tragic today
          Bm     D/F#
And your life's a mess
G     G/F#   Em        Em7      C 
Poor thing, maybe you like it that way
          F#m           B
That could make sense I guess

Em C Bm

                  Em                                 D             
Just think of the millions and millions of horrible things
         Em           D           G
That can happen, that happen each day
    D     G   G/F# 
But on we go
           Em             
There must still be a few million chances
     D          Em           D              G  
That just a few things could still turn out okay
  D       G F#m B
So on we go

Bm   E   Bm       E    Bm  E
     But oh... what a life it is
Am    D   Am          D    Am 
          Oh... what can we do
    D
With you

G     G/F#   Em          Em7      C   
Poor thing, everything's tragic today
          Bm     D/F#
And your life's a mess
G     G/F#   Em          Em7      C 
Poor thing, maybe you like it that way
          F#m            B
That could make sense I guess

Em  F# Em  F# Em  F# Em C/E
Bm  E  Bm  E  Bm  E Bm Am/C

G     G/F#   Em          Em7      C   
Poor thing, everything's tragic today
          Bm     D/F#
And your life's a mess
G     G/F#   Em          Em7      C 
Poor thing, maybe you like it that way
          F#m            B
That could make sense I guess

Em   C
