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

       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

     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

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

   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
