The Singer

capo on 2nd . essentially , it’s E and A2 the entire song .

[ E ]
as i walk these narrow streets
[ A2 ] [ E ]
where a million passin’ feet have trod before me

with my guitar in my hand
[ A2 ] [ E ]
suddenly i realize nobody knows me

[ A2 ]
where yesterday the multitude
[ E ]
screamed and cried my name out for a song

today the streets are empty
[ A2 ] [ E ]
and the crowds have all gone home

i pass a million houses
[ A2 ] [ E ]
but there is no place that i belong

all i knew to give you
[ A2 ] [ E ]
was song after song after song

[ A2 ]
all the truths i tried to tell you
[ E ]
were as distant to you as the moon
[ A2 ]
born 200 years too late
[ E ]
and 200 years too soon

i’m a child of this age
[ A2 ] [ E ]
locked into the pages of your book

and when i Am but dust and clay
[ A2 ] [ E ]
and all the children stop to take a look

[ A2 ]
will they marvel at the miracles i did perform
[ E ]
and the heights i did aspire
[ A2 ]
or will they tear out the pages of the book
[ E ]
to light a fire

with the rain on my face
[ A2 ] [ E ]
there is no place that i belong
