C G Am EmHave you seen the old man, in the closed-down market

C G Am EmIn his eyes you see no pride, and held loosely by his side
F C G7 Cyesterday's papers, telling yesterday's news
CHORUS:
C F Em C G Am So how can you tell me, you're lo - ne - ly
D7 D7 G G7 and say for you that the sun don't shine?
C G Am Em Let me take you by the hand, and lead you through the streets of London
F C G7 C C I'll show you something, to make you change your mind
C G Am EmHave you seen the old gal, who walks the streets of London
F C D7 G7dirt in her hair, and her clothes in rags?
C G Am EmShe's no time for talking, she just keeps right on walking
F C G7 CCarrying her home, in two carrier bags
CHORUS.
C G Am EmAnd in the all-night cafe, at a quarter past eleven
F C D7 G7some old man sitting there, all on his own
C G Am EmLooking at the world, over the rim of his tea-cup
F C G7 CEach day lasts an hour, then he wanders home alone
CHORUS.
C G Am EmAnd have you seen the old man, outside the seaman's mission?
F C D7 G7His memory's fading, with those medal ribbons that he wears
C G Am EmAnd in our winter city, the rain cries little pity
F C G7 CFor one more forgotten hero, and a world that doesn't care
C F Em C G Am So how can you tell me, you're lo - ne - ly
D7 D7 G G7 and say for you that the sun don't shine?
C G Am EmLet me take you by the hand, and lead you through the streets of London
F C G7 C C I'll show you something, to make you change your mind
F C G C I'll show you something, to make you change your mind
