Streets of London by Liam Clancy Guitar Chords


[INTRO:] C G Am Em F C D G C G Am Em F C G C

[VERSE 1:]
Have you seen the old man in the closed-down market
Kicking up the paper with his worn-out shoes
In his eyes you see no pride, hand held loosely by his side
A yesterday’s paper, telling yesterday’s news

[VERSE 2:]
Have you seen the old girl who walks the streets of London
Dirt in her hair, and her clothes in rags?
She’s no time for talking, she just keeps right on walking
Carrying her home in two carrier bags

[CHORUS:]
F Em C ~ Am
And then how can you tell me, you’re lonely
Or say that for you, the sun won’t shine?
Let me take you by the hand and lead you through the streets of London
I will show you something to make you change your mind

[INTERLUDE:] F C G C

[VERSE 3:]
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
Each day lasts an hour, then he wanders home alone

[VERSE 4:]
And have you seen the old man outside a seaman’s mission?
His memory is fading like the ribbons that he wears
And in this winter city, the rain cries little pity
For one more forgotten hero in a world that doesn’t care

[CHORUS:]
F Em C ~ Am
And then how can you tell me, you’re lonely
Or say that for you, the sun won’t shine?
Let me take you by the hand and lead you through the streets of London
I will show you something to make you change your mind

[CHORUS:]
F Em C ~ Am
How can you tell me, you’re lonely
Or say that for you, the sun won’t shine?
Let me take you by the hand and lead you through the streets of London
I will show you something to make you change your mind

[OUTRO:] F C G C
