C#m            A
I'm not crazy like my brother
        B              G#
But its the way that i choose
        C#m            A
I dont hang around with a sixpence
B              G#
when i got everything to lose
        C#m            A
would you bring my money
     B                   G#
and take from me all that i was worth
        C#m            A
cause i wasnt worth nothing
     B       G#
and i wasnt yours


Chorus:

C#m
Oh, don't you be a passerby
              A            B      G#
oh, won't you sit down and stay a while
C#m
Oh, don't you be a passerby
              A            B      G#
Oh, won't you sit down and stay a while
G#|-------------------------| (let it ring)
Cause it's been too long since you been around


C#m      A         B         G#
Sold out man from across the way
C#m           A             B         G#
He thought he heard what he heard you say
C#m      A         B         G#
Hey now man your watch it shines
        C#m      A             B      G#
For the bid of a second yields him 40 times


C#m
Oh, don't you be a passerby
              A            B      G#
oh, won't you sit down and stay a while
C#m
Oh, don't you be a passerby
              A            B      G#
Oh, won't you sit down and stay a while
G#|-------------------------| (let it ring)
Cause it's been too long since you been around
