AThere's (x02220@1)a young boy in the queue
DNot (xx0232@1)much else for him to do
      AHe's (x02220@1)had a drink, he's had a few
DDown (xx0232@1)the pub on Hope Street

ADear (x02220@1)old lady she's looking thin
	DGot (xx0232@1)a shopping bag with your life in
AYour (x02220@1)old man's going through the bins
DSo (xx0232@1)it goes on Hope Street

ARain (x02220@1)on me come pouring down
DClean (xx0232@1)the dirt of this old town
F#mTell (244222@1)the sun to come around
      DAnd (xx0232@1)show his face on Hope Street


Riff


AThere's (x02220@1)a flight right down the street
     DThe (xx0232@1)betting shop has got him beat
ABlew (x02220@1)his money for the week
Don (xx0232@1)a horse called Hope Street

ANo (x02220@1)old faces out today
DSomeone (xx0232@1)took them all away
ACleaning (x02220@1)up or so they say
     DThe (xx0232@1)dirty face of Hope Street

AEveryday (x02220@1)I look at you
DDressed (xx0232@1)up in you ties of blue
ASaying (x02220@1)there's not much you can do
    DTo (xx0232@1)help the kids on Hope Street

AThey (x02220@1)don't seem to even care
DThat (xx0232@1)it was you that put them there
AYou (x02220@1)seem to think they like it there
DHanging (xx0232@1)out on Hope Street
