F
G
C
Oh,
the neon
lights were flashing
F
C
and the icy winds did blow
G
Am
G
Water seeped into his shoes
F
C
and the drizzle turned to snow
F
C
His eye s were red, his hopes were dead,
Am
E
and the wine was running low
F
G
And the old man came home
C
from the forest
His tears fell on the sidewalk
F
C
as he stumbled in the street
G
Am
A dozen faces stopped to stare,
G
F
C
but no one stopped to speak
F
C
For his castle was a hall way,
Am
E
and the bottle his only friend
F
G
And the old man stumbled in
C
from the forest
Up a dark and dingy staircase
F
C
the old man made his way
G
Am
His ragged coat around him
F
C
as upon his cot he lay
F
C
And he wondered how it happened
Am
E
that it all turned out this way
F
G
C
Getting lost like a fool in the forest
And as he lay there sleeping
F
C
a vision did ap pear
G
Am
Upon his battle shine
F
C
in the face of one so dear
F
C
Who loved him in the springtime
Am
E
of a long forgotten year
F
G
When the wildflowers did bloom
C
G
Am
F
G
in the forest
C
Oh, she touched his grizzled fingers
F
C
and she called him by his name
G
Am
Then he heard the joyful sound
G
F
C
of children at their games
F
C
In an old house on a hillside
Am
E
in some forgotten town
F
G
Where the river runs down
C
from the forest
Where the mighty roar them
F
C
big jets soar above the canyon street s
Am
The conmen con but life goes on
F
C
before the city sleep s
F
C
For an old forgotten sol dier
Am
E
the dawn will come no more
F
G
For the old man has come home
C
From the forest
