The neon haze of city lights,The tribal sound of marching feet,

Cuts through the gloom on cold dark nights,

The tired and homeless roam the streets,

Bb F Bb F
The sirens wail the engines roar,A shadowed man just glances around,
C Bb F C Bb F
A victim of life`s mindless toil,Lies cold and helpless on the ground.
