C  8|10|10|9|8|8

V1:
Am                       Em
 And he sets down his plastic bag
Am                       Em
Amongst the rubbish and shite
Am                       Em
He ties up his hooded top
G            D                 Em
And puts his head down for the night

V2:
But he'll be lucky if he gets any sleep
Because the sirens tend to moan
And the old man lying across from him
Is as cold as fuckin stone

Refrain: C|Em x3 G|D|Am x1

V3:
All he needs is a little love
And a cup of tea to keep him warm
But sure as day we all walk past
We'll never notice when he's gone

V4:
He was once a bright young boy
With the whole world at his feet
But circumstance has let him down
And now he's on the street

V5:
C                 Em
Street life isn't easy
C                 Em
It's no fun being all alone
C                 Em
We should think of that when we're walking past
G               D       Am
And he's lying cold as stone

Refrain to fade
