Standard (EADGBE)

And he sets down his plastic bag

Amongst the rubbish and shite

He ties up his hooded top

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

| x3 || 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:

Street life isn’t easy

It’s no fun being all alone

We should think of that when we’re walking past

And he’s lying cold as stone

Refrain to fade
