I'm out on the street all alone by the newsstand
G# Gm
The lady of leisure comes tearin' by
F
Almost knocking me down
Cm Bb7M
She turns at the corner and looking back
G# Gm
Lets her eyes send the message I'm helpless alone
F
And I'm goin' down
G# Gm
Help me I need someone gentle to love me
G# Gm
My life is a miserable comedy
D# Dm
Of strangers posing as friends
G# F C
I know they don't know who I am
C
Hurry it's time to make your move boy
Hurry better get along with it soon boy
F
Hurry there she goes
C
Hurry she's out the door boy
G F C
You know you can win the battle but you can lose the war
Hurry are your feet glued to the pavement boy
G F C
You know you can win the battle but you can lose the war
F Cm Gm Bb C
Thought I saw a fox I did I saw a fox amidst that sea of pri-I-I-ide
Running
F Cm Gm Bb C
Let me call a hansom cab we'll both get in and then go for a r-i-i-iide
Nowhere
F Bb
Nothing spoken I retreat find the subway take a seat
F Cm Gm Bb C
I let myself get in my way and let her get awa-a-aa-ay
I got off the train at the next stop and headed back uptown
G# Gm F
And asked her quite frankly would she not prefer a beginning
