[A] See him huddled [E] in the shadows, sleeping on his cardboard bed, [A] using rags [E] for a pillow,
where he lays his unwashed head.
[A] His blankets hold newspapers, [Em] they're [A] not as good [E] against the snow.
You see [D] so many [A] out there like him, [Em] [A] and you walk [C#m] the night patrol, [D] [A] [G] and you walk the [C#m] night patrol.
Oh, you [E] wonder where he came from, where he's gonna go.
[A] Was it a woman [E] or a mother that's brought him down so low?
[Bm] What's happened [A] to his family?
[Em] [A] They know he's out [E] here in the cold.
[D] He's just [A] a nameless soldier, [Em] [A] marching on [C#m] the night patrol, [Bm] [A] [G] marching on [C#m] the night patrol.
Like that [A] woman in the corner, she [Em] can't be more than [E] seventeen.
She's run [A] away from somewhere, taking nothing [B] but her dreams.
Now those dreams [E] are lying shattered, as the street [A] exacts its toll.
[Em] And she's just another victim, lost out on the [C#m] night patrol.

Into the scene, [D] now I'm [E] trying unemployment, got replaced by a machine.
[A] And I'm caught with my, my bad habits, sometimes I lose control.
[Em] [E] And the street [A] ends, and the tracks hurt, when you walk [C#m] the night patrol.
