[G] [D] [F#m]
[A] [D]
Have you [A] seen the old man [B] in the [Bm] low [F#m]-stand market
[G] Kicking [D] up the papers with [G] his worn [F#m]-out shoes?
[D] In his [A] eyes you see no pride, [B] handed [F#m] loosely at his side
[G] Yesterday's [D] paper [F#m]
telling [G] [D] yesterday's year
So [G] how [F#m] can you tell me [D] you're [A]
[Bm] lonely
[D] [E] And say for you that the [A] sun don't shine?
[D] Let me take [A] you by the hand [Bm] and lead you through [F#m]
the streets of London
[G] I'll show [D] you something that'll [A] make you change [D] your mind
[A] [Bm]
[F#m] [A] [D] Have you seen [A] the old girl [Bm] who walks the streets [F#m] of London
[G] Dirt in [D] her hair and [G] her clothes in [F#m] [A] rags?
[D] She's no time for [A] talking, she just [Bm] keeps right on [F#m] walking
[G] Carrying [D] her hope in [A] her two [D]-carrier bag
[G] So how [F#m] can you tell me
[D] you're [A] [Bm] lonely
[D]
[E] And say for you that the sun [A] don't shine?
[D] Let me take [F#m] you [A] by the hand [Bm] and lead you through [F#m] the streets of London
[G] I'll show [D] you something that'll make you change your mind
[A]
[Bm] [F#m]
[G] [D]
[A] [D]
In the all [A]-night cafe [Bm] at a quarter past [F#m] eleven
[G] Same [D] old man sitting [G] there on [F#m] his own
[D] Looking at the [A] world over [Bm] the rim of [F#m] his teacup
[G] Each tea [D] less than an hour [A] and he [C#] wanders [D] home alone
So [G] how can [F#m] you tell me [D] you're lonely
[E] And say for you that the sun [A] don't shine?
[D] Let me take [A] you by the hand [Bm] and lead you through [F#m] the streets of London
[G] I'll show [D] you something [A] that'll make you change [D] your mind
[A] [Bm]
[F#m] [A] [D] Have you seen [A] the old man [Bm] outside a [F#m] seamen's mission
[G] Memory [D] fading with the [G] metal ribbons that [F#m] he [A] wears?
[D] In a winter [A] city the [Bm] rain cries a little [F#m] pity
[G] For one more [D] forgotten hero [A] and a [G] world that [A]
[D] doesn't care
[G] So how [F#m] can you tell me
[D] you're [A] [Bm] lonely
[D]
[E] And say for you that the sun [A] don't shine?
