No 4 in the UK charts in 1972. There's a bit more going on percussion-wise than these
chords would suggest so check out the video on youtube for the rhythm etc.
The main riff played with chords seems to my ear to be -
E F# G# A G# E E F# G# A G# E E F# G# A G# E A G# E A G# E
Intro = E A E E A E E A E
Verse 1
E A E
I'm standing in the road
A E
A man without a home
A E
My friends all pass me by and never say a word
A E
I'm feeling so alone
A E
And all the things I've known
A E
Just seem to disappear and never reappear
Chords as per intro
E A E E A E E A E
Verse 2
A E
I feel the rain and cold
A E
My clothes have all been sold
A E
And all my shouts for help just seem to go unheard
A E
I'm a just a lonely man
A E
Won't someone lend a hand
A E
Don't leave me on my own just standing in the road
Chords as per intro

Repeat verse 1
A E
I'm standing in the road

My friends all pass me by and never say a word
A E
I'm feeling so alone
A E
And all the things I've known
A E
Just seem to disappear and never reappear
