Intro 1

Verse 1
D 
It's a long distance phone
Em 
and I feel so alone here without her
A 
It's a crime and a shame,
I ain't got the change
Don't know that I'm
D 
worried about her
I've been all over town
Every street up and down
Em 
Looking for the man
A 
He's just a face in the crowd
Where the traffic roars loud
But don't you know he'd be proud
D 
To give a helping hand
Mister, can you find it in your heart
A 
D 
Em 
To lend me a dollar?
A 
Cause the times happen slow,
fresh out of dough
D 
And I ain't got the money to call her
My pride out the door,
cause I've been turned down before
Em 
But I'll keep trying
A 
This type of pain is kind of hard to explain
D 
But the feeling's the same as not dying
You put the change in my hand,
you're the world's kindest man
Em 
And I thank you,
A 
You'll never know what you've done
For this poor mother's son
D 
A thirsty man just got a cold cup of water
Ah, mister, can you find it in your heart
Em 
To lend me a dollar?
A 
Cause the time's happenin' slow,
fresh outta dough
D 
And I ain't got the money to call her
Mister, can you find it in your heart
Em 
to lend me a dollar?
A 
Cause the time's happenin' slow,
fresh outta dough
D 
And I ain't got the money to call her
Mister, can you find it in your heart
Em 
to lend me a dollar?
A 
Cause the times have been slow
and fresh out of dough
And I ain't got no money to call her
