[Intro 1]
[D][F#m][Bm][F#m][G][D][A][D]

[Verse 1]
[D]Have you seen the [F#m]old man
in the [Bm]closed -down mar[F#m]ket
Kick[G]ing at the pa[D]per
with [E]his worn -out shoe?
[A]In [D]his eyes you see[F#m] no pride,
[Bm]an d held loosely at h[F#m]is side,
[G]Yesterday's pap[D]er telling
[A]yesterday's [D]news.
Have you seen the [F#m]old girl
who [Bm]walks the streets of Lon[F#m]don,
[G]Dirt in her [D]hair and her [E]clothes in [A]rags?
[D]She's no time for [F#m]talking,
she [Bm]just keeps right on walk[F#m]ing
[G]Carrying her [D]home into [A]carrier [D]bags
[G]How can you tell [D]me you're [F#m]lonely?[Bm]
[E]Save for you that the sun don't shi[A]ne[F#m]
[A]Let[D] me take you by the[F#m] hand,
[Bm]lead you through the s[F#m]treets of London
[G]I'll show you something
[D]to mak[A]e you change your min[D]d
[F#m][Bm][F#m][G][D]
[A][D]
In the all -night [F#m]cafe
at a [Bm]quarter past elev[F#m]en
[G]Same old [D]man sittin'
[E]there on his [A]own
[D]Lookin' at the world
[F#m]over the rim of[Bm] his tea cu[F#m]p
[G]Each tea lasts one [D]hour,
and he [A]wanders home [D]alone
Have you seen the old [F#m]man
[Bm]outside the seaman's [F#m]mis sion?
[G]Memory fading
with [D]the metal rib[E]bons that [A]he wears
[D]In our winter [F#m]city
the rain [Bm]cries so little [F#m]pity
On [G]one more forgotten her[D]o
and a [A]world that doesn't [D]care
[G]How can you tell me [D]you're lon[F#m]ely?[Bm]
[E]To say for you that the sun don't shi[A]ne
[D]Let me take [F#m]you by the hand
[Bm]Lead you through [F#m]the streets of London
[G]I'll show [D]you something
To [A]make you change your [D]mind
[G]I'll show you something
[D]I hop[A]e we'll change your min[D]d
