In the all -night cafe

at a quarter past eleven

Same old man,
Em 
A 
sitting there on his own
D 
A 
Looking at the world
Bm 
F#m 
over the rim of his teacup
G 
D 
And each tea glass an hour
A 
D 
and he wanders all alone
G 
D 
F#m 
So how can you tell me
D 
A

you're lonely

When I say to you that the

the streets of London

To make you change your mind
A 
Have you seen the orphan
Bm 
Outside the steamboat's

machine?
G 
Memory fading with
D 
Em 
A 
The metal rose that he wears
Bm 
A 
And in  our eternity
G 
F#m 
the grain cries out of its ear
G 
D 
For one more forgotten hero
A 
Bm 
And a world that doesn't care
A 
G 
D 
So come and tell me
F#m 
D 
A 
Bm 
you're lonely
A 
Bm 
E 
And I'll save you
A 
the sun will shine
Bm 
A

Oh, I'm going to take you by the hand

I'll lead you through the
F#m 
streets of my heart
G 
D 
I'll show you something
A 
D 
to make you change your mind
