8 8 8 8 9 9 8 -8 7 7 8
Have you seen the old man in the closed down
8 8 -7 -6 -6 7 7 7 7 7 -8 -8
market, Kicking up the papers with his worn out
8 8 8 8 9 9 9 9 7 -7
shoes? In his eyes you see no pride hands held
7 8 8 -9 8 -6 -6 7 7 7 7 7
loosely by his side, Yesterday`s paper telling
6 -6 -7 7
yesterday`s news
CHORUS
7 -9 -9 -9 8 8 9 9-9 8
So how can you tell me you`re lonely
-8 -8 -8 -8 -6 -6 7 -7 6
And say for you that the sun don`t shine
8 8 8 9 9 9 8 -8 7 -7 7
Let me take you by the hand and lead you through
-8 8 -9 8 6 -6 -6 7 7 7
the streets of London. I`ll show you something
7 6 6 -6 -7 7
to make you change your mind.
VERSE 2.
Have you seen the old girl who walks the streets
of London, Dirt in her hair and her clothes in
rags? She`s no time for talkin` She just keeps
right on walkin` Carrying her home in two carrier
bags
CHORUS
VERSE 3.
In the all-night cafe at a quarter past eleven
same old man sitting there on his own
Looking at the world over the rim of his tea-cup
Each lasts an hour and he wanders home alone
CHORUS
VERSE 4.
Have you seen the old man outside the seamans
mission
Memory fading with the medal ribbons that he
wears?
In our winter city the rain cries a little pity
For one more forgotten hero and a world that
does`nt care
CHORUS |
