[Intro 1]
[D][A][E][F#m][E][A][D][A]

[Verse 1]
I slept [G]last
night in a good [F#m]hotel
I went [Bm]shopping [D]today [G]for jewels
[D]The [A]wind rushed [G]around
in the dirty [F#m]town
And the [Bm]children let [D]out
from [G]the schools[D]
I was [E]standing [Bm]on a no[F#m]isy co[A]rner
[D]Waiting for the [A]walking [G]green[D][E]
[A]Across the street he sto[G]od
And he played [F#m]real good
On his [Bm]clarinet, [D]for fre[G]e
[D][F#m][E]

[Verse 2]
[F#m]
[E]Now [A]me I [G]play for [F#m]for tunes
And those [Bm]velvet [D]curtain cal[G]ls[D]
I've got a [A]black limousine
[G]And two[F#m] gentlemen
Es[Bm]corting me [D]to the [G]hall[D]s
And I play if [Bm]you have [F#m]the mo[A]ney
Or [D]if you're [A]a friend to [G]me[D][E]
But the [A]one man [G]band
By the [F#m]quick lunch stand
He was [Bm]playing [D]real
[G]goo[D]d, for free
[F#m][E]

[Verse 3]
[A]Nobody [G]stopped to [F#m]hear him
Though he [Bm]played [D]so sweet [G]and [D]high
They [A]knew he had [G]never
Been on [F#m]their T.V.
So they [Bm]passed [D]his [G]music [D]by
I [Bm]meant to [F#m]go over [D]and
[Asus4]ask for a song[A]
Maybe [D]put on [A]a har[G] mo[F#m]ny
[E]I h[A]eard his refrain
[G]As the sig[F#m] nal changed
He was [Bm]playing [D]real [G]good, for free
