INTRO: Em 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 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 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 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 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 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 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
