[Verse]
C               F                C F C
The wino has something to say
C            F             C F C
So listen and don't run away
G                         F               C
He's really a pal and he won't steal your gal
C               F                C F C
The wino has something to say

[Verse]
C               F              C F C
The wino was once a big man
C               F                C F C
He sports a tattoo from Japan
G                         F                  C
He'll tell you his name if you play the set game
C               F               C F C
The wino was once a big man

[Chorus]
G                         F                C
A traveller, a dreamer, a poor man, a schemer
C               F               C F C
He knows about life much too well
G                            F         C
The streets of the city are alleys of pity
C               Bb            C F C
Really his heaven and hell

[Verse]
C                   F            C F C
The wino cools off in the rain
C                   F            C F C
He dreams of expensive champagne
G                            F         C
A bottle a day keeps the cruel world away
C                   F            C F C
The wino cools off in the rain

[Chorus]
G                            F         C
A traveller, a dreamer, a poor man, a schemer
C                     F            C F C
He knows about life much too well
G                            F         C
The streets of the cities are alleys of pity
C               Bb            C F C
Really his heaven and hell

[Outro]
C                  F             C F C
The wino has something to say
C                      F             C  C
So listen, when you pass his way
