Verse 1:
       Am                             G
    Casey joins the hollow sound of silent people walking down
          F                              E
    The stairway to the subway in the shadows down below
      Am                                 G
    Following their footsteps through the neon darkened corridors
        F                         E
    Of silent desperation,never speaking to a soul

Verse 2:
         F                                C
    The poison air he's breathing has a dirty smell of dying
                Dm                                E
    Cause it's never seen the sunshine and it's never felt the rain
         Am                         G
    But Casey minds the arrows and ignores the fatal echoes
             F                                 E              Am
    Of the clicking of the turnstile and the rattle of his chains

Bridge 1:
      C                                                    G
    "Oh",she said "Casey it's been so long since i've seen you"
                                                  C
    "Here",she said "Just a kiss to make a body smile"
                                                              G
    "See",she said "I've put on new stockings just to please you"
                                               C
    "Lord" she said "Casey can you only stay awhile"

Verse 3:
      Am                              G
    Casey leaves the underground and stops inside the golden crown
          F                              E
    For something wet to wipe away the chill that's on his bones
      Am                           G
    Seeing his reflection in the lives of all the lonely men
          F                             E
    Who reach for anything they can to keep from going home

Verse 4:
      F                            C
    Standing in the corner,Casey drinks his pint of bitter
           Dm                             E
    Never glancing in the mirror at the people passing by
             Am                             G
    Then he stumbles as he's leaving and he wonders if the reason
            F                               E                 Am
    Is the beer that's in his belly or the tear that's in his eye

Bridge 2:
       C                                                  G
    "Oh",she said "I suppose that you seldom think about me"
                                                      C
    "Now",she said "Now that you've a family of your own"
                                                             G
    "Still",she said "It's so blessed and good to feel your body"
                                                 C   Dm  G  C
    "Lord",she said "Casey it's a shame to be alone"
