[Intro]
CThe story's a sad one, the sort that you hear all the time
FBut this time I'll bore you with details and open your mind
It's the Amtale of a young girl who once was the talk of the Ctown
[Verse]
CThe first time I saw her the skin was so thin on her bones
Her Feyes they were lost on that street though she called it her home
So I Cthought can I save her, can I get her out of harm's way
And Fshe looked at me with those eyes so what could I say
[Chorus 1]
So I said Cwhat's your name
And she said you're Fall the same
So I said don't Cact so strange
I only Fasked your name
[Verse]
CThe stars in the night sky she'd seen only once in her life
But Fstars over girls parts on call cards she sees every night
She said Csomewhere in my tattoo jungle you will find my mum
But Fshe will disown me should she ever learn what I've done
[Chorus 1]
And she said Cwhat became
Of my Fpromised fame
All I Cgot was shame
And she said you're Fall to blame
[Chorus 2]
And then her eyes said Cdon't you leave me standing on my own
FCan't you see the streetside is my home
I'm Cheld by men at night but still I'm cold
I'm so Flonely but you know I'm not alone
FI'm not alone
FI'm not alone
[Verse]
She had Chair like a willow tree choked at the side of the road
Cardboard Fboxes for pillows she weeps as she reaps what she sows
So I Casked her if one day she mind joining me in my grave
You Fknow like the big ones you see with the family name
[Bridge 1]
But Amshe said all she'd ever been was a whore and a Emslave
And Dmshe didn't know if she had any soul left to Gsave
[Chorus 1]
And she said Cwhy'd you care
So I said Fbecause I dared
Ever since I saw you Cstanding there
Well I couldn't Fhelp but stare
[Chorus 2]
And then her eyes said Cdon't you leave me standing on my own
FCan't you see the streetside is my home
I'm Cheld by men at night but still I'm cold
I'm so Flonely but you know I'm not alone
FI'm not alone
FI'm not alone
[Bridge 2]
And Cshe must have had the most lonely face I've ever known
Yeah Fshe must have had the most lonely face I've ever known
Well I Emtried to hold on but my grip it just was not that Amstrong
I can Gstill see her eyes as she fell and she fell for so long
[Verse]
If Cyou ever see her I hope you succeed where I failed
YoFu know I cried for the cutie of King's Cross the day she derailed
Oh Csomebody please can you save her and take her away
You know FLondon will kill her you can't let the smoke have its way

[Intro]

The story's a sad one, the sort that you hear all the time

But this time I'll bore you with details and open your mind

Am C

It's the tale of a young girl who once was the talk of the town

[Verse]

The first time I saw her the skin was so thin on her bones

Her eyes they were lost on that street though she called it her home

So I thought can I save her, can I get her out of harm's way

And she looked at me with those eyes so what could I say

[Chorus 1]

So I said what's your name

And she said you're all the same

So I said don't act so strange

I only asked your name

[Verse]

The stars in the night sky she'd seen only once in her life

But stars over girls parts on call cards she sees every night

She said somewhere in my tattoo jungle you will find my mum

But she will disown me should she ever learn what I've done

[Chorus 1]

And she said what became

Of my promised fame

All I got was shame

And she said you're all to blame

[Chorus 2]

And then her eyes said don't you leave me standing on my own

Can't you see the streetside is my home

I'm held by men at night but still I'm cold

I'm so lonely but you know I'm not alone

I'm not alone

[Verse]

She had hair like a willow tree choked at the side of the road

Cardboard boxes for pillows she weeps as she reaps what she sows

So I asked her if one day she mind joining me in my grave

You know like the big ones you see with the family name

[Bridge 1]

Am Em

But she said all she'd ever been was a whore and a slave

Dm G

And she didn't know if she had any soul left to save

[Chorus 1]

And she said why'd you care

So I said because I dared

Ever since I saw you standing there

Well I couldn't help but stare

[Chorus 2]

And then her eyes said don't you leave me standing on my own

Can't you see the streetside is my home

I'm held by men at night but still I'm cold

I'm so lonely but you know I'm not alone

I'm not alone

[Bridge 2]

And she must have had the most lonely face I've ever known

Yeah she must have had the most lonely face I've ever known

Em Am

Well I tried to hold on but my grip it just was not that strong

I can still see her eyes as she fell and she fell for so long

[Verse]

If you ever see her I hope you succeed where I failed

You know I cried for the cutie of King's Cross the day she derailed

Oh somebody please can you save her and take her away

You know London will kill her you can't let the smoke have its way
