VERSE 1
********
There's a crowd outside peering through his window
B7
And he strains to hear the words the people say
There's a crowd outside peering through his window
Em
And he wishes that the crowd would go away
E|E|---------------||--------
VERSE 2
********
He was happy, he was working one fine morning
B7
Then a friend waving a paper ran his way
Now there's a crowd outside peering through his window
Em
And he wishes that the crowd would go away
E|E|---------------||--------
VERSE 3
********
G D
He was just a Joe, a John, a Phil, a Michael
Am G
An ordinary man with feet of clay
D
Now every move he makes the camera follows
Am B7
And all he's ever done is on display
E|E|---------------||--------
VERSE 4
********
Em
He'd never hurt a soul, he'd never argued
B7
He'd never dreamed his life could go astray
Now there's a crowd outside peering through his window
Em
And he wishes that the crowd would go away
Em B7 Em
E|E|---------------||--------
VERSE 5
********
G D
Friends he trusted once have turned their faces
Am G
Now he sits alone there every day
D
Ex-lovers have been paid for their confessions
Am B7
For photographs and lies and hearsay
E|E|---------------||--------
VERSE 6
********
Em
He reads and reads and reads again the letters
B7
From strangers saying god comes if you pray
But there's a crowd outside peering through his window
Em
And he wishes that the crowd would go away
E|E|---------------||--------
VERSE 7
********
The phone rings in the hall he does not answer
B7
They're beating on his door, he stands at bay
There's a crowd outside, a stone comes through the window
Em
Now he knows the crowd will never go away
