[VERSE 1]
D D7
Alone in a barroom a young girl is sitting
G D
And smiling at nothing at all
A
And she stares now and then at the eyes of the men
A7 D Dsus4 D Dsus2 D
In the mirror that hangs on the wall
D D7
She's waiting for someone and knowing there's no one
G D
Who cares if she comes or she goes
A
Just a soul in the shadows the world never sees
A7 D Dsus4 D Dsus2 D5
She's somebody nobody knows

[CHORUS]
G A D
Someone no one's ever known
A G D D7
Crying where no one can hear
G D
Somebody's dying alone
A A7 D
In a city where nobody cares

[VERSE 2]
D D7
Down in the gutter an old man has fallen
G D
Like something the world threw away
A Asus4 A
The late crowd was leaving, and nobody e- ven
A7 D Dsus4 D Dsus2 D
Took the time to look down where he lay
D D7
The old man was crying and helplessly trying
G D
To wipe off the stain from his clothes
A
Just a soul in the shadows that life left behind
A7 D
He's somebody nobody knows

[CHORUS]
G A D
Someone no one's ever known
A G D D7
Crying where no one can hear
G D
Somebody's dying alone
A A7 D
In a city where nobody cares
