Shopping Bag Lady

C G D

[Verse 1]
D                   G             D7       Am7    G
City lights and the pretty sights beckoned you to roam
Em                     D           A      D  Bm7  A7sus4
Leavin' now and you're knowin' how you're on your own
D            G     D7      Am7   G
Family and reality seem so far away
Em                   D                A    Bm7 D  C    F#7
Feelin' fine and the happy times have left you to stay oh

[Chorus]
Bm7          Am7 D7    Em7 Am7 D7  G
Shopping bag la--dy asleep on  the snow
   G            F#m7           Em7            A7sus4   C F#7
If you had your fortune, you'd trade it for a kind hello
Bm7          Am7 D7     Em7 Am7 D7    G
Shopping bag la--dy the win-ter winds blow
G              F#m7                Em7                     A7sus4
Society has forgotten you, there's nowhere left for you to go

Continues after the ad
D                           G            D7      Am7    G
Through the tears, all your better years passin' by so fast
Em              D                A  D   Bm7 A7sus4
Loneliness is a part of you, and oh how it  lasts
D                      G                D7   Am7      G
No one there, there to really care, the city seems so cold
Em                 D               A   Bm7    D  C    F#7
Yesterday you were just a child, today you're so old, oh

[Chorus]
Bm7          Am7 D7    Em7 Am7 D7  G
Shopping bag la--dy asleep on  the snow
   G            F#m7           Em7            A7sus4   C F#7
If you had your fortune, you'd trade it for a kind hello
Bm7          Am7 D7     Em7 Am7 D7    G
Shopping bag la--dy the win-ter winds blow
G              F#m7                Em7                     A7sus4
Society has forgotten you, there's nowhere left for you to go

I would love to hold you
A      Bm7  Em7    D Em                            Em7
Nights when you're a-lone and the cold and dark is killin' you ever so slowly

A      Bm7  Em7    D Em7 Bm7            Em7 D
