Homeless

Capo II

C
She said she had no money
                    G
But he was in doubt
Am 
He told her, "I used to be in too"
       Em
But now he was out
F
"Spare some small change lady
G                       Am
And I'll be on my way"
C
She looked into his eyes
                    G
and deep in his soul
Am
I know she was wondering
    Em
If he was in control
        F
She muttered to herself,
                G
"Those beggars,

                               Am
Where do they all come from?"
            C                    G
He said, "I'm not a homeless man
         F           Em
I'm a gypsy by trade
               Am
And I'm travelling this land
       G                Am
I'm not a homeless man"
C
He moved through the streets
                      G
With his headband low
            Am
Never thinking he would never see
          Em
That woman again, you know
F
Just sleeping in the doorways
         G                    Am
And alleys like he always had
C                                G
The years rolled by and later on

(Page 2/4)
Am
He spotted an old woman
                      Em
All tattered and worn
   F
Hard times had got her
  G                             Am
Her clothes were ragged and old

She said,
        C                 G
"I'm not a homeless woman
          F          Em
I'm a gypsy by trade
               Am
And I'm travelling this land
         G                Am
I'm not a homeless woman"
C
Sometime in the daytime
                   G
Sometimes at night
                Am
You will see a couple walking
                        Em
They'll come into sight

(Page 3/4)
F                  G
Pushing their carts
                 Am
and holding hands
C
If you ask to help
                      G
They'll just run away
Am                          Em
Like little children, out to play
F                             G
And if you ask, "Who are you"
                   Am
They'll always say 
C                       G
"I'm not a homeless man 
          F           Em 
I'm a gypsy by trade 
               Am
And I'm travelling this land
         G
She's not a homeless woman
               Am
I'm not a homeless man"
