Pretty ribbons of blue
                                        G

[Verse]
      G              D7           G
Crowded street, busy feet, hustle by him
     G             D7          G
Downtown shopping, Christmas is nigh
         G      G/B         C         Cm
There he sits, alone on the sidewalk
     A     A7                         D7
Just hopin'   that you won't pass him by
           G            D7           G
Should you stop, better not, much too busy
          G        D7              G
You're in a hurry, my how time does fly
           G             G/B        C        Cm
And in the distance, the ringing of laughter
           G       D7          G        C
And in the midst of laughter he cries,  Oh
[Chorus]
