More chords by Harry Chapin


Am7

I come fresh from the street,

D7 C Am7 G

fast on my feet, kinda lean and lazy;

Am7 D7

not much meat on my bones, and a whole lot alone,

C Am7 G

and more than a little bit crazy.

Dm7/G C

The old six string was all I had

Am7 Em

to keep my belly still,

Am7 D7

and for each full hour lesson I gave

C Am7 G

I got a crisp ten dollar bill.

Am7 D7

She was married for seven years

C Am7 G

to a concrete castle king.

Am7 D7

She said she wanted to learn to play the guitar

C Am7 G

and to hear her children sing.

Dm7/G C

So I'd show up about once a week

Am7 Em

in my faded tight-legged jeans

Am7 D7

with a backlog full of hobo stories

C

and dilapidated dreams.

G Am7

She said, "I wanna learn a love song full of happy things."

D C

She said, "I wanna learn a love song; won't you let me hear you sing?"

G Am7

She said, "I wanna learn a love song, I wanna hear you play."

D C Am7 G

She said, "I wanna learn a love song before you go away."
