Faces
D7 C7
Cracked for reason beyond recognition

His space is
D7 C7
At the Palace, he sleeps for twenty five cents

Windshields with an old rag

The night train passes by

Not the answer for princes and dancers

Uh-huh
Em7
He’s standing under street lights

He’s thinking of his old life

He lost his pretty young wife

The corner is his big plan
Em7
His brunch with Jim and jitters

Boston blue laws isn’t for shitters
Em7
And newsprint is for cheaters
Dmaj7
Cement mattress for believers

A dirty old bum

He’s a dirty old bum

He can’t say “Yes”

He can’t forget it

A dirty old bum

His buddies think he’s got some nerve

Mrs Face had other lovers

Her arms smothered other numbers
