Standard (EADGBE)
In my time I have been a rich man given favours
All the world at my feet and it's many different flavours
I sucked it all dry now I realise
I'm a beggar on the street of love
I'm a beggar on the street of love
I'm a beggar on the street of love
All the rest have no charm
There's nothing they can give me
What I want makes me poor
In this great big world of plenty
I'm holding out my cup only you can fill it up
I'm a beggar on the street of love
I'm a beggar on the street of love
I'm a beggar on the street of love
On my own I'm standing so patiently
And my heart keeps calling
Calling out for you to see
You look right through me and you pass me by
You look right through me and you pass me by
I'm a beggar, I'm a beggar.
Repeat and then fade.
Take my hand, lead me to
Your loving milk and honey
Cover me, keep me from
The night so cold and rainy
Please, I'm down on my knees
I'm a beggar on the street of love.
