[Intro]
Am Em Dm7
Am Em Dm7
Ooh
Am Em Dm7
Eh eh
[Verse 1]
Am Em Dm7 Am Em Dm7
Show me the cafe where women laugh and call each other,
Am Em Dm7 Am Em Dm7
Show me the neighborhood where brother talks to brother.
Am Em Dm7 Am Em Dm7
Show me the bar with names carved on the door,
Am Em Dm7
Some of these names look familiar,
Am G Fmaj7
I’ve been here before.
[Pre-Chorus]
Am Em Am Em F Am F C
And I’ve seen ragged children walking through Manhattan, London town,
F Am F G
Singing of stone, as the world goes round.
Am Em Am Em F Am F C
And I was in that number when I left my home, headed south,
F Am F G
Living on hope and word of mouth.
[Chorus]
C F G
And they’re falling, in the winter wind,
C F G
Like snowflakes they turn and spin,
C F G
Love shelters in dark doorways,
C Am F Em7 G
Then dreams of summer and flies away.
[Post-Chorus]
Dm Em F
And maybe that’s the best that they can do,
Em
(Maybe that’s the best that they can do),
F G C F C C
Yeah, maybe that’s the best that they can do.
[Interlude]
Am Em Dm7

[Verse 2]
Am Em Dm7 Am Em Dm7
Show me the counting house, where young men stare at screens,
Am Em Dm7 Am Em Dm7
Show me the labouring man, working down the hole,
Am Em Dm7 Am Em Dm7
Show me the bar with names carved on the door,
Am Em Dm7
Some of these names look familiar,
Am G Fmaj7
I’ve been here before.
[Pre-Chorus]
Am Em Am Em F Am F C
And I’ve seen ragged children walking through Manhattan, London town,
F Am F G
Singing of stone, as the world goes round.
Am Em Am Em F Am F C
And I was in that number when I left my home, headed south,
F Am F G
Living on hope and word of mouth.
[Chorus]
C F G
And they’re falling, in the winter wind,
C F G
Like snowflakes they turn and spin,
C F G
Love shelters in dark doorways,
C Am F Em7 G
Than dreams of summer and flies away.
[Post-Chorus]
Dm Em F
And maybe that’s the best that they can do,
Em
(Maybe that’s the best that they can do),
F G C F C C
Yeah, maybe that’s the best that they can do.

[Outro]
Am Em Am Em F Am F C
And I’ve seen ragged children walking through Manhattan, London town,
F Am F C F Am F C
Dear old Stockholm, gay Paris, old Vienna, and Ice Berlin,
F Am F C
I love Hamburg, Oslo too,
F Am F C
Greetings from Bergen, Hmm Milano,
F Am F C
Singin’ in Brussels, Amsterdam,
F Am F C
Belfast City, Dublin Town,
F G Em C G D
And the city of Dundee,
G Em C G D G
D G Em C D
G Em C G D G
(Fade Out)
