		Streets of London

>		C                 G
		Have you seen the old man
>		Am                 Em
		By the closed down market
>		F              C               G
		Kicking up the papers with his worn out shoes
>		C                  G
		In his eyes you'll see no pride
>		Am           Em
		Held loosely by his side
>		F           C              G           C
		Yesterday's paper, telling yesterday's lies.

Chorus:		So how can you tell me that you're lone-ly
>		F           C                 G
		And say for you the sun don't shine
>		C               G
		Let me take you by the hand
>		Am                       Em
		And lead you through the streets of London
>		F             C            G                    C
		I'll show you something to make you change your mind.

		Have you seen the old girl
		Who walks the streets of London
		Dirt in her hair and her clothes all in rags
		She's no time for talking
		She just keeps right on walking
		Carrying her home in two carrier bags.

!		(Chorus)

		And in the all night cafe
		At a quarter past eleven
		Same old man sitting there on his own
		Looking at the world over the rim of his teacup
		And each tea lasts an hour
		Then he wanders home alone

!		(Chorus)

		And have you seen the old man
		Down by the seamen's mission
		Memory fadng with the medal ribbon that he wears
		And in our winter city
		The rain cries a little pity
		On one more forgotten hero
		In a world that doesn't care.

!		(Chorus)
