1st Verse:

D5
Standing on a corner
G5
Passing time away
 A5
I thought I heard an organ grinder
G5                     D5
Singing as he played
D5
He had a little monkey
          G5
With a little cup of tin
              A5
And he danced for joy when someone
 G5           D5  
 put a penny in

     Why did you ever leave me, girl

     2nd Verse:

D5
I couldn't help but wonder
               G5
How the old man got his song
            A5
What a tragic tale of loneliness
        G5             D5
How fate had done him wrong
D5          
Whatever made the old man
        G5
Want to brave the cold and rain
    A5
And tell the world his story
     G5                    D5
'Til death could ease the pain

     3rd Verse

D5
I went back to the corner
           G5
Just to hear the old man play
   A5
A policeman said the old man
G5                      D5
Died one cold November day
D5
I waited for a minute

Then sadly walked away

Though I couldn't see the old man

I'm sure I heard him play
