[Verse 1]
A A7 D
Broken dreams we’ve seen them all
E A
Broken hearts we’ve watched them fall
A7 D
We said we love them one and all
E A
But left them out there crying
A A7 D
Old salvation army clothes
E A
They shuffle down the streets so slow
A
We see them young
A7 D
We see them old
E A
We never see them dying
[Chorus]
A A7 D
It’s such a shame it always rains
E A
On the children of the street
[Verse 2]
A A7 D
Movie houses magazines
E A
Mary Christ in figurines
A7 D
And every old familiar scene
E A
Places we may know
A A7 D
Hopeless eyes that never shine
E A
Hopeless hearts so lost in time
A7 D
Hopeless hands much to unkind
E A
There’s one in every doorway
[Chorus]
A A7 D
It’s such a shame it always rains
E A
On the children of the street
[Verse 3]
A A7 D
Give them strength to lean upon
E A
The halls of justice cast In stone
A7 D
Where no one seems to be at home
E A
To love the cold and lonely
[Chorus]
A A7 D
It’s such a shame it always rains
E A
On the children of the street
