#1.
G
It's a long distance phone and I feel
                  Am      Am7
so alone here without him.
       D
It's a crime and a shame that I ain't got
                         Am            D
the change and don't you know that I'm worried
 G
about him.

#2.
G
I've been all over town every street, up and
             Am          Am7
down looking for the man.
            D
He's just a face in the crowd where the traffic
                         Am           D
roars loud but don't you know he'd be proud to
       G
give a helping hand.

CHORUS:
G
Mister, can you find it in your heart to lend me
  Am
a dollar?
        D
For the times have been slow, I'm fresh outta dough
      Am            D        G
and I ain't got the money to call him.

#3.
G
I threw my pride out the door cause I've been turned
                          Am    Am7
down before but I'll keep trying.
D
This type of pain is kind of hard to explain but the
Am7           D            G
feeling's the same as like dying.

CHORUS:
G
Mister, can you find it in your heart to lend me
  Am
a dollar?
        D
For the times have been slow, I'm fresh outta dough
      Am            D        G...........Eb
and I ain't got the money to call him.

#4.
            Ab
You put the change in my hand, you're the world's kindest
          Bbm           Bbm7
man and I thank you, sir.
             Eb
You'll never know what you've done for this poor mother's
               Bbm7           Eb          Ab
son, a thirsty man just got a cold cup of water.

CHORUS:
Ab                                                 Bbm
Mister, can you find it in your heart to lend me a dollar?
        Eb              Bbm       Eb
For the times have been slow, I'm fresh outta dough and I
Bbm           Eb       Ab
ain't got the money to call him.

Mister, can you find it in your heart to lend me a dollar?
        Eb              Bbm       Eb

ain't got the money to call him..(Fade.)
