Standard (EADGBE)

In my time I have been a rich man given favours

All the world at my feet and it's many different flavours

I sucked it all dry now I realise

I'm a beggar on the street of love

I'm a beggar on the street of love

I'm a beggar on the street of love

All the rest have no charm

There's nothing they can give me

What I want makes me poor

In this great big world of plenty

I'm holding out my cup only you can fill it up

I'm a beggar on the street of love

I'm a beggar on the street of love

I'm a beggar on the street of love

On my own I'm standing so patiently

And my heart keeps calling

Calling out for you to see

You look right through me and you pass me by

You look right through me and you pass me by

I'm a beggar, I'm a beggar.

Repeat and then fade.

Take my hand, lead me to

Your loving milk and honey

Cover me, keep me from

The night so cold and rainy

Please, I'm down on my knees

I'm a beggar on the street of love.
