The Singer Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
As I [D]walk these narrow streets
Where a million [G]passing [D]feet
have tromped before me
With my guitar in my hand
Suddenly, I realize nobody [Dm]knows [D]me

[Verse 2]
Where [D]yesterday the mul[G]titude
Screamed and cried my
name out for a [D]song
Today the streets are empty
And the crowds have all gone home

[Verse 3]
[D]I pass a million houses
But there is no place that I belong
All I knew to give you

[Verse 4]
Was song after song after song
[G]All the truths I tried to tell you
Were as distant to you as the [D]moon
Born two-hundred years years too late
And two-hundred years years too soon

[Verse 5]
I'm a [D]child of this age
Locked into the pages [G]of your [D]book
And when I am but dust and clay

[Verse 6]
And all the children stop to take a look
[D]
Will they mar[G]vel at the
miracles I did perform
And the heights I did as[D]pire
Or will they tear out the pages of the book
To light a fire

[Verse 7]
With the [D]rain on my face

[Verse 8]
There is no place where I belong
[D]
Did you forget this fuck
ing singer so soon?
And did you forget my song?
