Intro: E5  C#5  A5  (continue this strumming throughout the verses)

She walks to the table with an apron full of stains and asks, "hey sir,
what can I get for you today?"
I try to be polite and make nice conversation but the food's no good and
she doesn't even seem to notice me here.
Her shoulders slumped, I see her tear stained eyes head back through the
double sawinging doors, serving pies was not her goal in life.
I leave a tip like I think Jesus would, and smile, "thanks a lot, have a
nice day." and I'm on my way.

B5                   C5    A5                    B5
Jesus what would you do?  Can you tach me how to love like you?

E5          B5        A5       B5           E5            B5      E5
I want to give you everything, but I've got nothing of my own at all.
And if I give what I have not got, will you fill me up an make me
    whole?

(E5 - C#5 - A5 progression again)

I see him sitting by the side of the building near the street sign, he's
got a sign saying "I will work for food."
He looks up with his glazed over eyes and says "How 'bout a dollar for a
veteran, a fellor American?"
Empty stomach, empty mind, empty soul, have I got the time to feed him a
little broken bread?
Do I toss up a prayer as I walk on by, or give him a tract and a weak
faced smile, or do I take the time to show him a little love?

B5                            C5
I don't feel like I've got anything to give
A5                     B5
So I guess I've got nothing to lose

E5          B5        A5       B5           E5            B5      E5
I want to give you everything, but I've got nothing of my own at all.
And if I give what I have not got, will you fill me up an make me
    whole?

(E5 - C#5 - A5 progression again, harder, x4.  Then just one strum at
the chord change time.)

I come back a couple of weeks later and see the same apron, same stains,
same split - end hair pulled back
She comes near and says "Hey mister, your smile picked me up the other
day, just thought I'd say thanks."

B5               C5     A5                    B5
And I don't know why it takes all my effort to try.

E5          B5        A5       B5           E5            B5      E5
I want to give you everything, but I've got nothing of my own at all.
And if I give what I have not got, will you fill me up an make me
    whole?
