Nicky Patterson - Street Life Chords

Am Em

And he sets down his plastic bag

AmAmongst the rubbish and sEmhite

AmHe ties up his hooded topEm

GAnd puts his Dhead down for the Emnight

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:

CStreet life isn’t Emeasy

CIt’s no fun being Emall alone

CWe should think ofEm that when we’re walking past

GAnd he’s lying cDold as sAmtone

Refrain to fade
