[Intro]
F
[Verse 1]
F
I am just a poor boy
F/E Dm
Though my story's seldom told
C
I have squandered my resistance
A#
For a pocket full of mumbles,
F
such are promises
F/E Dm
All lies and jests
C A#
Still a man hears what he wants to hear
F
And disregards the rest
[Verse 2]
F
When I left my home and my family
F/E Dm
I was no more than a boy
C
In the company of strangers
A#
In the quiet of the railway station
F
Running scared,
F/E Dm C
Laying low, seeking out
Bb
the poorer quarters
F
Where the ragged people go
C
Looking for the places
A# C/E F
Only they would know
[Chorus]
F/E Dm C/E
Lie la lie, lie la la la lie la lie
Dm A#
Lie la lie, lie la la la lie
C F
la lie la la la la lie
[Verse 3]
F
Asking only workman's wages
F/E Dm
I come looking for a job
C
But I get no offers
A#
Just a come-on from the whores
F
On Seventh Avenue
F/E Dm
I do declare
C A#
There were times when I was so lonesome
F
I took some comfort there
[Chorus]
F/E Dm C/E
Lie la lie, lie la la la lie la lie
Dm A#
Lie la lie, lie la la la lie
C F
la lie la la la la lie
[Verse 4]
F
Then I'm laying out my winter clothes
F/E Dm
And wishing I was gone
C
Going home
A#
Where the New York City winters
F
Aren't bleeding me
F/E Dm
Bleeding me (bleeding me)
C
Going home
F/E Dm
Bleeding me (bleeding me)
C
Going home
F
Going home
