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

[Verse 1]
[D]Have you seen the [A]old man
In a [Bm]closed- down mar[F#m]ket?
[G]Kicking up [D]the paper
With his [G]worn out [A]shoes
[D]In his eyes, [A]you see no pride
And [Bm]held loosely [F#m]at
his [G]side
Yesterday's [D]paper
Telling [A]yesterday's [D]news

[Verse 2]
So, [G]how can you tell [F#m]me
you're [D]lonely?[Bm][E]
And say for you that the sun don't [A]shine?
Let me [D]take you [A]by the hand
And [Bm]lead you through the streets
[F#m]of Lon[G]don
Show you [D]something to [A]make you

[Interlude 1]
change your mind
[D][A][Bm][A]

[Verse 3]
[D]Have you seen the [A]old girl
Who [Bm]walks the streets of Lon[F#m]don?
[G]Dirt in her [D]hair
And her [G]clothes in [A]rags
[D]She's no time for [A]talking
She [Bm]just keeps right on [F#m]walk ing
[G]Carrying her [D]home
In [A]two carrier bags
[D]

[Verse 4]
So, [G]how can you [F#m]tell me
you're [D]lonely?[Bm][E]
And say for you that the sun don't [A]shine?
Let me [D]take you [A]by the hand
And lead [Bm]you through
[F#m]the streets of London
[G]I'll show you [D]something [A]to make you

[Interlude 2]
change your mind
[D][A][Bm][F#m][G][D][A]
[D]

[Verse 5]
[D]In the all [A]night café
At a quarter [Bm]past elev[F#m]en
[G]Same old [D]man
Sitting [G]there on his [A]own
[D]Looking at [A]the world
Over the [Bm]rim of his [F#m]tea cup
[G]Each tea lasts an [D]hour
And he [A]wanders home alone
[D]

[Verse 6]
So, [G]how can you tell [F#m]me you're
[D]lonely?[F#m][Bm][E]
Don't say for you that
the sun don't [A]shine
Let me [D]take you [A]by the hand
And [Bm]lead you through
[F#m]the streets of [G]London
Show you [D]something to [A]make you

[Interlude 3]
change your mind
[D][A][Bm][A]

[Verse 7]
[D]Have you seen the [A]old man
Outside [Bm]the seaman's [F#m]mission?
[G]Memory fading [D]with
The medal [G]ribbons that he [A]wears
In [D]our winter [A]city
The rain [Bm]cries a little [F#m]pity
For [G]one more forgotten [D]hero
And [A]a world that doesn't care
[D]

[Verse 8]
So, [G]how can you [F#m]tell me
you're [D]lonely?[Bm][E]
And say for you that the sun don't [A]shine?
Let me [D]take you [A]by the hand
And [Bm]lead you through
[F#m]the streets of [G]London
Show you [D]something to
[A]make you change your mind
[D]
