Verse 1
(D minor) There's a dusty old gutter,
he's lying in now
Mmm he's blind and he's old
And there's a (G major) bottle
that rolls (A major) down the road (D minor)
Me I'm young and I'm so wild
And I still feel the need
Of your ap (G major) ron strings once (A major) in a while (B minor)
For there's (A major) taxi cabs hooting
But (E major) I can't be foot-loose (G major) forever
forever (D minor)
My suitcase (A major) it's a cheap one
My (E major) darling she's a dear one
My (G major) head's feeling light as a feather (C major)
Verse 2
Take my (G major) ears and tell me when
the (D minor) whistle blows
Wake me (G major) up and tell me when
the (D minor) whistle blows
Long lost and lonely (A major) boy
You're (B minor) just a black sheep go (G major) ing home
I (D minor) want to feel your wheels (A major) of steel (G major)
(D major) Underneath my itching (A major) heels (G major)
Take my money (D major)
(G major) Tell me when the whistle (A major)

blows
(B minor) (C major) (D minor)
Verse 3
Part of me asked the young (D minor)
man for the time
With a cool vacant stare,
(G major) of undue concern
(A major) He said nine (D minor)
It's not so bad but I really
do love the land
And rather all this than
those diamante lovers
In (G major) Hyde Park (A major) holding hand (B minor) s
Blowing (A major) heat through my fingers
(E major) Trying to kill (G major) off this cold (D minor)
Will the (A major) street kids remember
Can I (E major) still shoot a fast cue
Has this (G major) country kid still got his soul (C major)
Verse 4
Take my (G major) ears and tell me when
the (D minor) whistle blows
Wake me (G major) up and tell me when
the (D minor) whistle blows
Long lost and lonely (A major) boy
You're (B minor) just a black sheep go (G major) ing home
I (D major) want to feel your wheels (A major) of steel (G major)
(D major) Underneath my itching (A major) heels (G major)
Take my (D major) money (D minor)
(G major) Tell me when the whistle (A major) blows
(B minor)
Verse 5
Take my money (D major)
(G major) Tell me when the whistle (A major)
