[Verse 1]
[C]The[D]re [Dm]ain'[G]t no[C] man in Charleston,[Bb]
a stranger to big crown[C]s best,
Catfish Row is [Bb]closed [Am]now
to the sight [G]of this old [C]red dress.
But [Em]there is one [Ebdim]they call Porgy,
and it seems like that man [Em]understood.
[C]Got his trust in me, [Dm]Lord,
an[Bb]d I's just [Dm]gon na stick [Am]for g[Bb]ood.
[C]I's got a man[Am] now,
I's got [C]Porgy.
[Dm]I understand [Bb]now, [G]since I's got Porgy.
[Em]I'm through with byw[Am]ays,
and his [Dm]ways is my [G]ways [Dm]forever[D]more.
[G]Lor[Cm]d, jus[C]t to feel his arms about me,[Dm]
knowing he [Bb]can 't get [G]on without me.
[Em]I want to [Am]beg for a [Dm]chance,
just to camp [G]by his [C]door.
Of [G]course, [B]ain[Am]'t much
more [D]to look and see,
lazy [G]and no count as [C]he can be,
[F]but he's got [Dm]that good
[D]kind of love for [G]me.
That's [C]why I'm changing my style
in this old way of living,
[Dm]glad I've stopped [Bb]taking
and [G]started giving.
[Em]Oh, I'se [C]got a [Am]man,
[Dm]I'se got Parky [C]now.[Dm]
[Bb]For him [C]to hold me in his
arm[Ebdim]s
and whisper[Dm], I l[Bb]oves you.[C]
To have him near me,
just [Ebdim]to cheer [G]me,
how could I get blue?
[C]Deep in my heart, oh, [F]I get such a [Bb]thrill
[D]We'll never part,
[Dm]that I'm sure we [D]never will
[C]Cause love, [Em]true [Ebdim]love will [Bb]find a way
Never [G]fear, [C]there'll come a day
[F]Maybe, my dear, [C]so [F]I'll wait
Trust [Dm]fate, [F]tha[C]t we'll be happy som[Am]eday
On [Dm]just that precious little thing [C]called love
[G]and that's why [C]I'm changing
my style
and this old way of living.
[Dm]Glad I've [Bb]stopped taking
an[G]d started giving.
[Em]Oh, I's got a [Am]man. [Dm]I's got Torgy [G]now.[C]
