[Eb] [F] [C] [Dm] [Am]
[Bb] [F] [C] [F]
Have you [C] seen the old man [Dm] in the closed [Am]-down market?
[Bb] Kicking [F] out the papers [Gm] with his worn [C]-out shoes
[F] In his [C] eyes you see no [Dm] pride and he held [Am] loosely at his [Bb] side
[F] Yesterday's paper [C] telling [F] yesterday's news
[Bb] So how [Am] can you tell me [F] you're [Am] [Dm] lonely?
[Am] [G] Safe for you if the [C] sun don't [Dm] shine
[C] [Gm] Let [F] me [C] take you by the [Dm] hand and lead you [Am] through the streets of [Bb] London
I'll [F] show you something [C] to make you [F] change your mind
[C] [Dm]
[C] [F] Have you [C] seen the old gal [Dm] who walks the [Am] streets of London?
[Bb] Threading [F] her hair [Gm] and her clothes [C] in the right
[F] She's no [C] time for talking, [Dm] she just keeps [Am] right on walking
[Bb] [F] Carrying her home [Gm] into [C] [F] carrier bags
[Bb] So how [F] can you tell me you're [C] [Dm] lonely?
[C] [G] Safe for you if the [C] sun don't [Dm] shine
[C] [F] Let me [C] take you by the [Dm] hand and lead you [Am] through the streets of [Bb] London
I'll [F] show you something [C] to make you [F] change your mind
[C]
[Dm] [Am] [Bb] [F]
[C] [F] In the [C] all-night cafe [Dm] at a quarter [Am] past eleven
[Bb] Same [F] old man [Gm] sitting there [C] on his own
[F] Looking [C] at the world [Dm] over the rim [Am] of his [Bb] teacup
Each tea [F] lasts an hour [C] and he wonders [F] home alone
[Db] [Gb]
Have you [Db] seen the old man [Ebm] outside of [Bbm] Seaman's Mission?
[B]
Memory [Gb] fading with the [Abm] metal ribbons [Db] that he wears
[Gb] And in our [Db] winter city [Ebm] the rain cries a [Bbm] little pity
[B] For one more [Gb] forgotten hero [Db] and a world that [Gb] doesn't care
[B] So how [Gb] can you tell me that you're [Bbm] [Ebm] lonely?
[Bbm] [Ab] Safe for you if the [Db] sun don't shine
Let [Gb] me [Db] take you by the hand [Ebm] and lead you through [Bbm] the streets of [B] London
I'll show [Gb] you something [Db] to make you change [Gb] your mind
[Db] [Ebm] [Bbm] [B] [Gb] [Db] [Gb]
