D
The old man down on the corner
Is drowning in his pain
I can see the sorrow in his eyes
His tears, they leave a stain
G
The streets have left him broken
D
He's in the final phase
Em F#m G A
Its been a long hard road
D
From his glory days

D
There's a tattoo of his sweetheart
Fading on his arm
He talks of painful tradgedy
How he lost his lucky charm
G
His memory is cloudy
D
From the thunder in his vein
Em F#m G A
He's vanishing, vanishing gone
D
In the Harlem rain
Bm G D
Harlem rain coming down
Bm A G D
Another shattered soul at the lost and found
G A Bm A
One more night on the streets of pain
G A D
Getting washed away by the Harlem rain

D
On desperation avenue
The devil takes his toll
Where the pushers and the poverty
Slowly claim you your soul
G
When you reached the realization
D
That you just cant break the chain, no
Em F#m G A
You're vanishing, vanishing gone
D
In the Harlem rain
Bm G D
Harlem rain coming down
Bm A G D
Another shattered soul at the lost and found
G A Bm A
One more night on the streets of pain
G A D
Getting washed away by the Harlem rain

D
In your search for tender mercy
No one seemed to care
The faith that used to be your crutch
Is now your cross to bear
G
You lost yourself so long ago
D
You don't know who to blame
Em F#m G
You're vanishing, vanishing gone
Em F#m G
Vanishing, vanishing gone
Em F#m G
Vanishing, vanishing gone
A D
In the Harlem rain.
