I am just a poor boy though my story's seldom told
GF
I have squandered my resistance for a pocket full of mumbles
C
such are promises
AmGF
All lies and just, still a man hears what he wants to hear
CGFC
and disregards the rest, mmm

CAm
When I left my home and my family I was no more than a boy
GF
In the company of strangers in the quiet of a railway station
C
running scared
AmCFC
laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters where the ragged people go
GFC
looking for the places only they would know
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
AmG
refrain lie la lie, lie la lie la, lie la lie
AmGFC
lie la lie, lie la lie la, lie la lie, lalala la lie
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CAm
Asking only workman's wages, I come looking for a job
G
but I get no offers
FC
just a come on from the whores, on seventh avenue
AmGF
I do declare there were times when I was so lonesome
