Verse 1
E
His footsteps echo softly
through the early mornin' hours
The slowness of his
A
moves should be a warning
E
But from the trash he digs a pair of socks
A
E
and yesterday's flowers,
E
Em
E
Monday morning.
He might have been a carpenter
at one time in his life,
And he built a lot of
homes, but never had one
Or he could have been a poet who
A
E
had come up on some hard times
A
And all that he had left was
Em
E
...
He could have been a
singer with a lot of promise
But cigarettes and whiskey run his throat
It was hard to remember even a simple tune
A
Or the words to songs that
E
Em
E
he had wrote
Take me back to
Memphis,
I've got to do some thinkin'
A
E
Cause I've been in this city way too long
Em
E
Em
An d it lays heavy on my
E
mind when I see another
the man having to make the
A
E
Em
E
sidewalks his home.
