[D]
Crowded streets, busy feet, hustle by him.
Downtown shoppers, for Christmas [G] is [D] nigh.
[G] There he sits, all alone, [C] on the sidewalk.
[A] Hoping that you won't [D] pass him by.
[G] Should you stop, [D] better not, [G] much [D] too busy.
[G]
You're in a hurry, [D] my how [G] time does fly.
And in the distance, the ringing [C] of laughter.
And [G] in the midst [D] of the laughter, [G] he cries.

Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue.
Wrap your presents to your darling [G] from you.
Pretty pencils to write I [C] love you.
