Verse 1
Am
Am
Am
Casey joins the hollow sound
G
of silent people walking down
F
The stairway to the subway
E7
in the shadows down below
Am
Following their footsteps
G
through the neon darkened corridors
F
Of silent desperation,
E7
never speakin' to a soul
F
The poison air he's breathin'
C/G
has the dirty smell of dying
D/A
'Cause it's never seen the sunshine
E7
and it's never felt the rain
Am
But Casey minds the arrows
G
and ignores the fatal echoes
F
Of the clickin' of the turnstiles
E7
Am
and the rattle of his chains
G
Am7
G7/B
Chorus 1
C
"Oh," she said, "Casey, it's been so long
G
Am7
G7/B
since I've seen you"
G
"Here," she said, "Just a kiss
C
G7/D
C/E
to make a body smile"
C
"See," she said, "I've put on new stockings
G
Am7
G7/B
just to please you"
G
"Lord," she said, "Casey,
C
C/B
can you only stay a while?"
Verse 2
Am
Am
Am
Casey leaves the underground
G
and stops inside the Golden Crown
F
For something wet to wipe away
E7
the chill that's on his bone
Am
Seeing his reflection
G
in the lives of all the lonely men
F
Who reach for anything they can
E7
to keep from goin' home
F
Standin' in the corner
C/G
Casey drinks his pint of bitter
D/A
Never glancing in the mirror
E7
at the people passing by
Am
Then he stumbles as he's leaving
G
and he wonders if the reason
F
Is the beer that's in his belly,
E7
Am
or the tear that's in his eye
G
Am7
G7/B
Chorus 2
C
"Oh," she said, "I suppose you seldom
G
Am7
G7/B
think about me"
G
"Now," she said, "Now that you've a family
C
G7/D
C/E
of your own"
C
"Still" she said, "It's so blessed good
G
Am7
G7/B
to feel your body"
G
"Lord," she said, "Casey, it's a shame
C
G7/D
C/E
to be alone
