[Verse]


   G+G   F#/G        E minorEm       C majorC      G+G   D MajorD
In a small town where all knew all, wondered a peasant lady nobody knew,
    G+G  F#/G        E minorEm        C majorC      G+G    D MajorD
But her only friend was a young boy, brought her hot tea and leftover stew,
    G+G    F#/G   E minorEm        C majorC        G+G      D MajorD
In those burnin' wintry Decembers, he'd pick dirty pennies up off the cold street,
       G+G     F#/G     E minorEm       D MajorD   C majorC    D MajorD       G+G
And while his mother was out Christmas shopping, he'd say, "Come on in, warm your feet."


G, D, C, D MajorD - (2X)


  G+G      F#/G     E minorEm       C majorC      G+G     D MajorD
As long as you share with me stories, so she spoke on the product of war,
  G+G      F#/G     E minorEm       C majorC     G+G      D MajorD
My mother never knew who she could be, as my father lay drunk on the floor,
    G+G      F#/G     E minorEm            C majorC     G+G        D MajorD
And she spoke of the cart that she wheeled, had keys with no locks, and guitars with no stings,
   G+G         F#/G   E minorEm      D MajorD     C majorC     D MajorD      G+G
and a puzzle that could never be finished, But this is my home, and these broken things are...

  But the boy went on to be taught....
  "But officer, I fondly remember you..


(Bridge)


   G+G   F#/G    E minorEm      D MajorD    C majorC     D MajorD        G+G
They buried something inside of you, Officer, Into your cold heart, dig deep
D MajorD     G+G   D MajorD
And you'll see
     C majorC    D MajorD
that it's me
       G+G  D MajorD         C majorC   D MajorD
And here I'll be,  nothing new to me
    G+G        F#/G   E minorEm   C majorC
I'll be heartbroken and cold, frozen and alone
  G+G      F#/G      E minorEm     C majorC
My coffin was a dumpster and I didn't even know
     G+G     F#/G      E minorEm     C majorC
But while out on the beat, he looked down to the street,
    G+G      F#/G    E minorEm    C majorC
and he saw a dirty penny heads up at hid feet
