STANDING AT THE CROSSROADS
DAVE EDMUNDS (FROM ALBUM PLUGGED IN)

This submission is with complete lyrics with missing chords added.

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
