[Intro]
D A G D G D A

[Verse 1]
D                  A                             G                             D
Little man was hungry they saw him as a tramp
A                             G                             Em                             A
With a love note in his pocket, but no money for a stamp,
D                             A                             G                             D
He just sits there in the doorway and he sings his lonely song,
A                             G                             D
Mumbling the cold out of his hands,
A                             G                             D
Watching the shadows weave and dance,
A                                           G                             A
Smiling, but in his eyes the chances are gone

[Chorus]
A7               D               G                             Em               A
He was me, He was you, maybe someone that you knew,
G                             Em                                           A
There goes everybody\’s brother, what’s his name?
A7               D               G                             Em                             A
Walk on by, Pay no mind, Heartbreaks happen all the time
Em                             G                             D
Ain\’t it cold enough today, so let it rain

[Verse 2]
D                             A                             G                             D
The painter tries to paint him, and the poet, he tries to see,
A                             G               Em                             A
I think he had a castle, in the man he used to be,
D                             A                             G                                           D
He just stuck to us a question, Can you tell me what you\’ve learned?
A                             G                             D
\”Nobody knows the truth,\” he said,
A                             G                             D
\”Not till the book has all been read,
A                             G                                           A
Follow the one you love instead of the road.\”

[Chorus]
A7                             D               G               Em               A
He was me, He was you, maybe someone that you knew,
G                             Em                                           A
There goes everybody\’s brother, what’s his name?
A7               D               G                             Em                             A
Walk on by, Pay no mind, Heartbreaks happen all the time
Em                             G                             D
Ain\’t it cold enough today, so let it rain

[Chorus]
A7                             D               G               Em               A
He was me, He was you, maybe someone that you knew,
G                             Em                             A
There goes everybody\’s brother, what’s his name?
A7               D               G               Em                             A
Walk on by, Pay no mind, Heartbreaks happen all the time
Em                             G               D
Ain\’t it cold enough today, so let it rain
Em                             G                             D
Ain\’t it cold enough today, so let it rain
Em                             G                             D
Ain\’t it cold enough today, so let it rain
