The Streets of London

Album Live Anthology
Intro [D#] [Bb] [Cm] [Gm] [G#] [D#] [Bb] [Bb7] [D#]
Verse 1
[D#] [Bb]
Have you seen the old man
[Cm] [Gm] [G#]
In the closed down market
[D#] [Fm7] [Bb]
Picking up papers with his worn out shoes
[D#] [Bb]
In his eyes you see no pride
[Cm] [Gm] [G#]
Hands held loosely at his side
[D#] [Bb] [Bb7] [D#]
Yesterday's paper, telling yesterday's news
Chorus 1
[G#] [Gm] [D#] [G#] [Cm] [F]
So how can you tell me that you're lo..ne...ly
[F7] [Bb] [Bb7] [D#]
And say for you that a sun don't shine
[Bb]
Let me take you by the hand
[Cm] [Gm] [G#]
And lead you through the streets of London
[D#]
I'll show you something
[Bb] [Bb7] [D#]
To make you change your mind
Verse 2
[Bb]
Have you seen the old gal
[Cm] [Gm] [G#]
Who walks the streets of London
[D#] [F] [Bb] [Bb7]
Dirt in her hair and her clothes in rags
[D#] [Bb]
She's no time for talking
[Cm] [Gm] [G#]
She just keeps right on walking
[D#] [Bb] [D#]
Carrying her home in two carrier bags
Chorus 2
[G#] [Gm] [D#] [G#] [Cm] [F]
So how can you tell me that you're lo..ne..ly
[Cm] [Bb] [Bb7] [D#]
And say for you that a sun don't shine
[Bb]
Let me take you by the hand
[Cm] [Gm] [G#]
And lead you through the streets of London
[D#]
I'll show you something
[Bb] [D#]
To make you change your mind
Verse 3
[Cm] [Bb]
And In the all-night café
[Cm] [Gm] [G#]
At a quarter past eleven
[D#] [F] [Bb] [D#]
The same old man sitting there on his own
[Bb] [Cm] [Gm] [G#]
Looking at the world over the rim of his teacup
[D#]
And each tea lasts an hour
[Bb] [Bb7] [D#]
And he wanders home alone
Chorus 3
[G#] [Gm] [D#] [G#] [Cm] [Bb] [F]
So how can you tell me that you're lo..ne..ly....
[F7] [Bb] [Bb7] [D#]
And say for you that a sun don't shine
[Bb]
Let me take you by the hand
[Cm] [Gm] [G#]
And lead you through the streets of London
[D#]
I'll show you something
[Bb] [D#] [Fm7] [D#]
To make you change your mind
