[Strophe]
A 
Old man lying by the side of the road 
         Am7 
With the lorries rolling by 
D5 
Blue moon sinking from the weight of the load 
        F                    Em7 
And the buildings scrape the sky 
A 
Cold wind ripping down the alley at dawn 
        Am7 
And the morning paper flies 
D5 
Dead man lying by the side of the road 
         F               Em7 
With the daylight in his eyes
[Refrain]
             D5                                C6add9 
Don't let it bring you down, it's only castles burning 
                        Bm7 
Just find someone who's turning and you will come around

[Strophe]
A 
Blind man running through the light of the night 
        Am7 
With an answer in his hand 
 D5 
"Come on down to the river of sight" 
            F           Em7 
And you can really understand 
A 
Red lights flashing through the window in the rain 
        Am7 
Can you hear the sirens moan? 
D5 
White cane lying in a gutter in the lane 
          F             Em7 
If you're walking home alone
[Refrain]
             D5                                C6add9

                        Bm7 
Just find someone who's turning and you will come around
