Newspaper Blanket chords by The Cowsills

Chords with lyrics

Intro

C minorCm
Sad old man nobody loves him


Verse
C minorCm      F minorFm       G#G#       D#D#
Every morning I would see him sleeping in the dew
  C minorCm      F minorFm       G+G
He never noticed me as I passed by
  C minorCm       F minorFm       G#G#           D#D#
I'd walk by slowly staring at the holes worn through his shoes
C minorCm        F minorFm       G+G
Wondering how he managed to get by

Chorus
C minorCm     F minorFm   A minorAm
Sad old man nobody loves him
C minorCm   BB    FF      D#D#
Sad old man has no place to stay
  G#G#           G# minorG#m
And nothing to claim but a broken down park bench
   A#A#                  G minorGm
And a newspaper blanket on a cold winter's day


Verse
  C minorCm       F minorFm        G#G#       D#D#
The afternoon would come; I'd see him begging by the square
   C minorCm      F minorFm       G+G
While I was in the crowd without a mind
  C minorCm     F minorFm         G#G#        D#D#
And had I been alone, I would have told him someone cared
    C minorCm       F minorFm       G+G
But it never bothered him for he was blind


Chorus
C minorCm     F minorFm   A minorAm
Sad old man nobody loves him
C minorCm   BB    FF      D#D#
Sad old man has no place to stay
  G#G#           G# minorG#m
And nothing to claim but a broken down park bench
   A#A#                  G minorGm
And a newspaper blanket on a cold winter's day


Outro
C minorCm       F minorFm      A minorAm
Sad old man how long will you be here
C minorCm   BB    FF      D#D#
Sad old man how long can you stay
  G#G#               G# minorG#m
For if you should leave who'll take care of the park bench
    A#A#                   G minorGm
And the newspaper blanket would be left by the way
