Original song and chords

C
F                             G           C
Standing off the street, on a corner all alone
           G                          C
as if he’s hiding, his chagrin in the dimness
F                           G                C
Should he be blamed, beeing born poor to the bone
         G
Is he to blame. if he’s a wreck…
          F                 C
If he’s a wreck, of life’s grimness
 
[Refrain:]
C                        G
Oh street bum. without a loved one
          F                  G
without a mother, or home to keep from
                  F                         G
Oh street bum, inside the blizzard’s raging wind
            F
a sparrow stripped plum
     C
Oh street bum
 
F                        G                 C
Yet even he, maybe some day he will come through
              G                          C
in finding a dream, a warm bosom, just a haven
F                           G              C
in finding two arms, to bestow him wings anew
              G
and two sweet lips, to bring him back…
                      F       C
to bring him back his courage even
 
(Refrain)
