Alone in a barroom a young girl is sitting
F
C
And smiling at nothing at all
G7
And she stares now and then at the eyes of the men
C
G7
In the mirror that hangs on the wall
C
C7
She’s waiting for someone and knowing there’s no one
F
C
Who cares if she comes or she goes
G7
Just a soul in the shadows the world never sees
C
C7
She’s somebody nobody knows
F
G7
C
Someone no one’s ever known
G7
F
C
C7
Crying where no one can hear
F
C
Somebody’s dying alone
G7
C
In a city where nobody cares
C7
Down in the gutter an old man had fallen
F
C
Like something the world threw away
G7
The late crowd was leaving
C
G7
And nobody even took time to look down where he lay
C
C7
The old man was crying and helplessly trying
F
C
To wipe off the stain from his clothes
G7
Just a soul in the shadows that life left behind
C
He’s somebody nobody knows
F
G7
C
Someone no one’s ever known
G7
F
C
C7
Crying where no one can hear
F

Somebody’s dying alone
G7

In a city where nobody cares
