These are the chords for the song in a key that I find comfortable for singing.
The original version starts with an Eb chord instead of a G.
This is one of the best songs ever written.
FWell I walked past just FyesterFday
And I couldn't bear that new Fmall no Fmore.
Now, I can't expect you all to Fsee it my Gway
But yFou may not Gknow what was Amthere befFore
And I Fwant them to Gput back my Fold corner Fstore
Well I walked past just, uh Flike I sFay
and I felt this hurt that would Fnot go Fhome
I can't expect that you're going to Fsee it my Gway
But Fyou may not Gknow the tAmrees I've Fknown
And I Fwant them to Gput back my Fold corner sFtore.
FI know it Gcost more money to Fshop there.G
But this was Amlove.Em This was lAmo-o-o-Gove.
FI know you had to Gpay more money. FI'll pay money. GI'll pay more!
GI don't care what the mall has got. G7I want back that corner store!
