[Intro 1]
[D][A][E][A][D][A]

[Verse 1]
I [A]slept last
[G]night in a goo[F#m]d hotel
I went [Bm]shopping [D]today [G]for jewels
[D]The[A] wind rushed aro[G]und
in the [F#m]dirty town
And the [Bm]children let [D]out from [G]the schools[D]
I [Bm]was standing on a [A]noisy corner
[D]Waiting for [A]the walking [G]green[F#m][E][A]
Across the street [G]he stood
And [F#m]he played real good
On his [Bm]clari[D]net [G]for free

[Interlude 1]
[G][D][F#m][E]

[Verse 2]
Now [A]me, [G]I p[F#m]lay for fortunes
And those [Bm]vel [D]vet curtain [G]call[D]s
I've got a [A]black lim[G]ousine
And [F#m]two gentlemen
Es[Bm]corting me [D]to [G]the hall[D]s
And I [Bm]play if you [A]have the money
Or [D]if you're a [A]friend to [G]me[F#m][E]
[A]But the one man ban[G]d
[F#m]By the quick lunch stand
He was [Bm]playing [D]real good,
[G]for free

[Interlude 2]
[G][D][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 [F#m]on their T.V.
So they [Bm]passed [D]his [G]music [D]by
I [Bm]meant to go over and [A]ask for a song
Maybe [D]put on a [A]har[G] mo[F#m]ny[E]
[A]I heard his refra[G]in
[F#m]As the signal changed
He was [Bm]playing [D]real good,
[G]for free
