Verse 1:
Em G             D       Em G              D
   Grand Central station,   wheels and it deals
Em    G                D         B7
  The crowds rush and scramble
E7                              A
  Round past the newsstands and out across the floors
    Em G           D        Em     G           D
And I     did some singin',    and I played guitar
Em G           D
   Down near a doorway
B7 E7                      A
     Howlin' out words and bangin' out chords
Chorus:
      D                     F#m
Well,   think what you will, laugh if you like
   Bm            A             G
It don't make no difference to me
D                    F#m
  I'll open my case,   and I might catch a coin
   G             A          D
But all ears may listen for free

Verse 2:
Em G               D        Em G               D
   Big clocks were tickin',    trains came and went
Em G           D      B7 E7
  Sad, ragged figures     limped in the hallways
    A
And dug through the trash
     Em G           D           Em G           D
While old folks and young folks    passed in a flood
Em G           D         B7
  All dashing somewhere
E7                            A
   Wrapped in their lives and gone in a flash

Chorus:
      D                     F#m
Well,   think what you will, laugh if you like
   Bm            A             G
It don't make no difference to me
D                    F#m
  I'll open my case,   and I might catch a coin
G                 A          D
 But all ears may listen for free

(Harmonica Solo)

Verse 3:
       Em   G        D        Em        G               D
Well, a man   came a talkin'     and he stopped where I stood
Em   G            D        B7
  He warned me so gravely
E7                                         A
  The cops here'll nab ya, boy and they'll take ya right on down, yes
    Em G         D        Em    G          D
But I    took my chances,  and luck saw me through
Em   G                D        B7
   I stayed until I'd finished
E7                          A
  Played what I pleased and poured out my sound

Chorus:
      D                     F#m
Well,   think what you will, laugh if you like
   Bm            A             G
It don't make no difference to me
D                    F#m
  I'll open my case,   and I might catch a coin
G                 A          D
 But all ears may listen for free
