The Band - Rags & Bones lyrics

Your rating:

F#m
Catch a taxi to the fountainhead
C#sus4/g#
Blinking neon penny arcade
A
A young caruso on the fire escape
Bm   bm/c#   d   d/e
Painted face ladies on parade
F#m
The newsboy on the corner
C#sus4/g#
Singing out headlines
A
And a fiddler selling pencils
Bm    bm/c#  d
The sign reads: help the blind

F#m  f#m/e   dmaj7
Comin up the lane callin
Bm7 c#m7  f#m
Workin while the rains fallin
Dmaj7 c# a/e   d#m7-5
Ragman, your song of the street
Dmaj7   e7sus4
Keeps haunting my memory
F#m f#m/e   dmaj7
Music in the air
Bm7  c#m7  f#m
I hear it evrywhere
Dmaj7 c#    a/e d#m7-5
Rags, bones and old city songs
Dmaj7 e7sus4  a
Hear them, how they talk to me

Trolley car rings out the morning
Whistle blows at noon
A cat fight breaks open the night
While watch dogs bay at the moon
A preacher on an orange crate
With a salvation army band
And clicking along the cobbled stones
Thats the sound of the ice-cream man

Comin up the lane callin
Workin while the rains fallin
Ragman, your song of the street
Keeps haunting my memory
Music in the air
I hear it evrywhere
Rags, bones and old city songs
Hear them, how they talk to me

The organ grinder and his monkey
Still walkin the same old beat
The shoe-shine boy slappin leather
He puts the rhythm in your feet
Strollin by the churchyard
Listnin to the sunday choir
With voices rising to the heavens
Like sirens screaming to a fire

Comin up to the lane callin
Workin while the rains fallin
Ragman, your song of the street
Keeps haunting my memory
Music in the air
I hear it evrywhere
Rags, bones and old city songs
Play them one more time for me
