[Verse 1]
Em        D     C      D                  Em
Standin’ on a corner, waiting for the snow.
  D             C      D                     Em
Wishin’ I was a little warmer, wondering where to go.
  D     C   D          Em     D     C         D
I saw a man break down today, break down into tears
Em            D   C   D         Em      D    C    D
Tonight I feel so far away from home.

[Verse ]
Em      D     C       D               Em
Who can I confide in? Who can really hear?
  D             C        D               Em
Who can keep my secrets? Who can see me clear?
  D     C   D          Em     D     C         D
I saw a man break down today, break down into tears
Em            D   C   D         Em      D    C    D
Tonight I feel so far away from home.

[Refrain]
Em               C             D   G
Watch out there Mama with your TV blues.
Em         C                D          G
Go walkin’ lightly in your high-heeled shoes.
Em             C               D       G
Look out there mister since ya seen so much.
Em         C      D                 G
Go lightly flying on your graveyard crutch.

[Verse 3]
Em       D               C     D       Em
People seeking people, standing on the earth
D                C        D                   Em
Reaching for connections, they know what it’s worth.
  D     C   D          Em     D     C         D
I saw a man break down today, break down into tears
Em            D   C   D         Em      D    C    D
Tonight I feel so far away from home.
