[Intro 1]
[D][A][Bm][F#m][G][D][A]
[D]

[Verse 1]
[D]Have you seen [A]the old
man [Bm]in the closed down mar[A]ket,
[G]Kicking up the pa[D]pers
with his [E]worn out [A]shoes?
[D]In his eyes you [A]see no pride,
[Bm]hand held loosely [A]by his side
[G]Yesterday's pap[D]ers telling
[A]yesterday's [D]news
So [G]how can you tell

[Verse 2]
[D]me
you're [A]lonely[Bm][D]
[E]And say for you that
the sun [D]don't [A]shine
[D]Let me take you [A]by the hand
And [Bm]lead you through the [A]streets of London
[G]I'll show you som[D]ething
To make [A]you change your
[D]mind.[A][Bm][A]

[Verse 3]
[D]Have you seen [A]the old girl [Bm]who
walks the streets [A]of London,
[G]Dirt in her [D]hair and [E]her clothes in [A]rags?
[D]She's no time for talk[A]ing,
she [Bm]just keeps right on [A]walking,
[G]Carrying her [D]home in two carrier bags.

[Verse 4]
In the [A]all night café at a
[Bm]quarter past el[A]even
[G]Same old man[D] is sitting
[E]there on [A]his own.
[D]Looking at [A]the world over
[Bm]the rim of his [A]teacup,
[G]Each tea last [D]an hour, and he wanders [E]home [D]alo[G]ne.[D]
[A][Bm][D]

[Interlude 2]
[E][D][A][D][A]
[Bm][A][G][D][A][D][A][Bm]
[D][A]
[D]Have you seen the

[Verse 5]
[A]old man out
[Bm]side the seaman's [A]mission,
[G]Memory fading[D] with the[E] metal
ribbons [A]that he wears?
[D]In our winter [A]city [Bm]the rain
cries a little [A]pity,
For one [G]more forgotten [D]hero and a world [A]that doesn't [D]care.
