Текст песни Cat Stevens - 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:
F G C Em Am
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)"
