As I walked out one morning fair,


e|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------0----------------0----------------0----------------0-------|
G|-----2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2-|
D|---4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4---|

I found myself drawn thoughtlessly


e|--------------------------------------------------------------------|

D|---4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4---|

Back to the place we used to live,

G|-----2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2-|
D|---4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4---|

And you still do, now without me.

E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|

Around the back, away from the road,


e|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------0----------------0----------------0----------------0-------|
G|-----2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2-|
D|---4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4---|
A|-0----------------0----------------0----------------0---------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|

Behind the bins, beneath your window,


e|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------0----------------0----------------0----------------0-------|
G|-----2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2-|
D|---4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4---|

I found the hulk, the rusting bulk


e|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------0----------------0----------------0----------------0-------|
G|-----2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2-|
D|---4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4---|

Of a shattered old piano.


e|--------------------------------------------------------------------|

D|---4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4---|
A|-0----------------0----------------0----------------0---------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|

Someone had torn out some of the keys


e|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------0----------------0----------------0----------------0-------|
G|-----2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2-|
D|---4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4---|
A|-0----------------0----------------0----------------0---------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|

With cruel care, not thoughtlessly,


e|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------0----------------0----------------0----------------0-------|
G|-----2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2-|
D|---4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4---|
A|-0----------------0----------------0----------------0---------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|

In such a way that one could only play


e|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------0----------------0----------------0----------------0-------|
G|-----2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2-|
D|---4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4---|

So I sat down in my sadness,


e|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------0----------------0----------------0----------------0-------|
G|-----2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2-|
D|---4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4---|
A|-5----------------4-------------------------------------------------|
E|-----------------------------------0---------------0----------------|

beneath your window,

D|---4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4---|
A|------------------0-------------------------------------------------|
E|-2---------------------------------2----------------2---------------|

And I played sad songs, on the minor keys



e|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------0----------------0----------------0----------------0-------|
G|-----2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2-|
D|---4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4---|
A|-5----------------4-------------------------------------------------|
E|-----------------------------------0---------------0----------------|

of a broken piano

D|---4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4---|
A|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-2---------------2-----------------2---------------2----------------|

   A sinner amongst saved men


e|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------0----------------0----------------0----------------0-------|
G|-----2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2-|
D|---4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4---|
A|-----------------------------------0----------------0---------------|
E|-2---------------2--------------------------------------------------|

 on the banks of the muddy Thames.


e|----------------------------------|
B|---------0----------------0-------|
G|-----2-----2---2------2-----2---2-|
D|---4---4-----4------4---4-----4---|
A|-0----------------0---------------|

D|---4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4---|
A|-0----------------0----------------0----------------0---------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|

As I have wandered through this city,


e|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------0----------------0----------------0----------------0-------|
G|-----2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2-|
D|---4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4---|
A|-0----------------0----------------0----------------0---------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|

Like a child lost in the London fog,


e|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------0----------------0----------------0----------------0-------|
G|-----2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2-|
D|---4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4---|
A|-0----------------0----------------0----------------0---------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|

From Highgate Hill, down to the river,


e|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------0----------------0----------------0----------------0-------|
G|-----2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2-|
D|---4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4---|
A|-0----------------0----------------0----------------0---------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|

Then washed downstream past the Isle of Dogs,


e|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------0----------------0----------------0----------------0-------|
G|-----2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2-|
D|---4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4---|
A|-0----------------0----------------0----------------0---------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|



Verse 2:

e|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------0----------------0----------------0----------------0-------|
G|-----2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2-|
D|---4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4---|
A|-0----------------0----------------0----------------0---------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|

I've had time enough to think upon


e|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------0----------------0----------------0----------------0-------|
G|-----2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2-|
D|---4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4---|
A|-0----------------0----------------0----------------0---------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|

The question of what kind of songs


e|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------0----------------0----------------0----------------0-------|
G|-----2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2-|
D|---4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4---|
A|-0----------------0----------------0----------------0---------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|

That you would choose to listen to


e|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------0----------------0----------------0----------------0-------|
G|-----2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2-|
D|---4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4---|
A|-0----------------0----------------0----------------0---------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|

Now that I am gone.


e|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------0----------------0----------------0----------------0-------|
G|-----2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2-|
D|---4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4---|
A|-0----------------0----------------0----------------0---------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|

And as I drift beneath that bridge,


e|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------0----------------0----------------0----------------0-------|
G|-----2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2-|
D|---4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4---|
A|-0----------------0----------------0----------------0---------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|

Just down the road from where you live,


e|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------0----------------0----------------0----------------0-------|
G|-----2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2-|
D|---4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4---|
A|-0----------------0----------------0----------------0---------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|

I've often thought I might have caught


e|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------0----------------0----------------0----------------0-------|
G|-----2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2-|
D|---4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4---|
A|-0----------------0----------------0----------------0---------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|

Your voice upon the wind.



Bridge:

e|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------0----------------0----------------0----------------0-------|
G|-----2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2-|
D|---4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4---|
A|-0----------------0----------------0----------------0---------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|

But as I stroked those broken keys


e|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------0----------------0----------------0----------------0-------|
G|-----2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2-|
D|---4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4---|
A|-0----------------0----------------0----------------0---------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|

You did not join in harmony.



Chorus:

e|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------0----------------0----------------0----------------0-------|
G|-----2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2-|
D|---4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4---|
A|------------------0-------------------------------------------------|
E|-2---------------------------------2----------------2---------------|

So I sat down in my sadness,


e|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------0----------------0----------------0----------------0-------|
G|-----2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2------2-----2---2-|
D|---4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4------4---4-----4---|
A|-5----------------4-------------------------------------------------|
E|-----------------------------------0---------------0----------------|

beneath your window,
