C Am
I´m just a poor boy though my story's seldom told
G
I have squandered my resistance
F C
For a pocket full of mumbles, such are promises
Am G F
All lies and jest, still a man hears what he wants to hear
C G F Em C
And disregards the rest m m m m ..
C Am
When I left my home and my family, I was no more than a boy
G
In the company of strangers
F C
In the quiet of a railway station, running scared
Am G F
Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters
C
Where the ragged people go
G F Em C
Looking for the places only they would know
Am
Lie la lie
G
Lie la lie la Lie la lie
Am
Lie la lie
G C
Lie la lie la la la la lie la la la lie
C Am
Asking only workman's wages I come looking for a job
G
But I get no offers
F C
Just a come-on from the whores on Seventh Avenue
Am G F
I do declare, there were times when I was so lonesome
C G F Em C
I took some comfort there
C Am
Then I'm laying out my winter clothes and wishing I was gone
G F C
Going home where the New York City winters aren't bleeding me
Em Am G
Leading meeeeeeeeee to going home.
C C Em Am G
Lie lie- Lie lie lie lie
C C Em Am G
Lie lie- Lie lie lie lie
F Em C
Lie lie-lie lie
C Am
In the clearing stands a boxer and a fighter by his trade
G F
And he carries a reminder of every glove that laid him down
C Am
Or cut him till he cried out in his anger and his shame
G F
I am leaving, I am leaving
C G F Em C
But the fighter still remains m m m m ..
Am
