Intro: C  G  D  G  C  G  D  G 

      C          G             D        G 
I was at the bus station, that terminal place 
         C           G                 D           G 
With the rest of the desperate, who've fallen from grace 
      C         G             D          G 
Where eyes are averted, where other eyes stare 
    C          G         D        G 
Man talking to somebody, nobody's there 


        C        G                D        G 
And the terminal cases, they're impossibly young 
       C          G         D             G 
And an old man is asking if I've seen his son 
        C         G                     D         G 
And the cops do a walk through, bottles slip into bags 
        C          G               D          G 
And the beggar boy standing there, hanging in rags
