Streets of London
CAPO 4 Intro C G Am Em F C Dm G G7
C G Am Em
Have you seen the old man in the closed down market
F C Dm G G7
Kicking up the papers, with his worn out shoes.
C G Am Em
In his eyes you see no pride, hand held loosely at his side,
F C G G7 C C7
Yesterdays papers, telling yesterdays news.
Chorus
F Em C G Am D
Then how can you tell me you’re lo ne ly,
D G G7 C G
And say for you that the sun don’t shine. Let me take you by the hand
Am Em
And lead you through the streets of London
F C G C
I'll show you something to make you change your mind.
C G Am Em
Have you seen the old girl who walks the streets of London?
F C Dm G G7
Dirt in her hair and her clothes in rags.
C G Am Em
She’s no time for talking, she just keeps right on walking,
F C G7 C C7
Carrying her home in two carrier bags.
Chorus
F Em C G Am D
So how can you tell me you’re lo ne ly,
D G G7 C G
And say for you that the sun don’t shine. Let me take you by the hand
Am Em
And lead you through the streets of London
F C G C
I'll show you something to make you change your mind.
C G Am Em
In an all night cafe at a quarter past eleven,
F C Dm G G7
Same old man sitting there on his own.
C G Am Em
Looking at the world over the rim of his tea cup
F C G7 C C7
Each tea lasts a hour, then he wanders home alone.
Chorus
F Em C G Am D
So how can you tell me you’re lo ne ly,
D G G7 C G
And say for you that the sun don’t shine. Let me take you by the hand
Am Em
And lead you through the streets of London
F C G C
I'll show you something to make you change your mind.
C G Am Em
Have you seen the old man out side the seamen’s mission?
F C Dm G G7
Memory fading with the metal ribbons he wears.
C G Am Em
In our winter city the rain cries a little pitty,
F C G7 C C7
For one more forgotten hero in a world that doesn’t care
Chorus
F Em C G Am D
So how can you tell me you’re lo ne ly,
D G G7 C G
And say for you that the sun don’t shine. Let me take you by the hand
Am Em
And lead you through the streets of London
F C G C
I'll show you something to make you change your mind.
