Standard (EADGBE)

Chorus

I'm standing at the crossroads again

With an empty heart and a dollar ten

Maybe I'll run into some famous names

Robert Johnson and Elmore James

I'm standing at the crossroads again

Verse 1

Well I woke up this morning like I usually do

 My baby wasn't nowhere around

 I looked in the kitchen and I looked in the hall

 In my slippers and my dressing gown

There was lipstick traces on my bedroom door

“Goodbye” she wrote, “I don’t want you no more”

 I guess I'm not the man she's looking for

I'm just the man she found

Repeat chorus:

 And I'm standing at the crossroads again

With an empty heart and a dollar ten

Maybe I'll run into some famous name

Robert Johnson and Elmore James

Standing at the crossroads again

Solo

Chorus chords

Verse 2

Well here I am on my own again

Now where did I go wrong this time

I treat her good like a gentlemen should

 And I never ever step out of line

Well I'm no kid - I know my way around

6 feet 6, I weigh 200 pounds

 But I can't hold no romance down

Maybe I should give up trying

Repeat chorus:

And I'm standing at the crossroads again

With an empty heart and a dollar ten

Maybe I'll run into some famous names

Robert Johnson or Elmore James

Standing at the crossroads again

And I'm standing at the crossroads again

Yes I'm standing at the crossroads again
