Streets Of London

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

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
