The Boy From Crosstown Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]Way on the other side of town
[F]lives a [C]boy that's been misunderstood
Just because he lives crosstown
and I live downtown
My family says that he's no good
People listen now,
[F]he may[C] be a boy from Crosstown
But he's sure not the boy that I love
It's not where you come from
that makes what [F]you are
It's what's inside that [G]counts by far
[C]I'm talking about the boy
from Crosstown
Don't you know that he's sure
not the boy that I love
People downtown say he's
troubled now
[F]because [C]on his face he wears a frown.
He only acts the way he does
[F]because he'[C]s unwanted
and he's un[F]loved.
He [C]may be a [F]boy from [C]Crosstown,
[F]but he's [C]sure not the [F]boy that I [C]love.
And all the love [F]that he's [C]never [F]known,
I tend to leave it to [G]him alone.
I'm [C]talking about the boy
from Crosstown.
Don't you know that he's showing off
the boy that I love?
Don't you know that I'm talking
about the [F]boy from [C]Crosstown?
He's showing off the [F]boy that I love.
I love him, I love him, [C]oh, yes, I do
[F]Yes, I [C]do
Oh, yes, I do
[F]I love my b[C]aby[D][C]
Oh, my family say
they want what's best for [F]me
[C]A nice young man from society
[F]But [C]I don't want no Dr. Sun, you see
[F]I w[C]ant the boy that
means the most to me
I want the boy [F]who call[C]s town
Yes, I [F]do,
cause [C]he's the son of
[F]the boy that I [C]love[F]
Oth[C]ers see [F]him as the [C]reckless kind
[F]But in my eyes, he's just a [G]dream divine
And [C]I'm talkin' bout the
boy from Crosstown
Don't you know that he's showin' off
the [F]boy that I [C]love?
Don't want [F]nobody
[C]Oh, he's showin' off the boy that I l[F]ove
[C]Don't want nobody else
