4729. Somebody Nobody Knows (Kris Kristofferson cover)

This song was recorded by Kris Kristofferson for his 1972 album "Border Lord". It was covered by the Everley Brothers in 1972.
Lyrics and chords:
D ……………….............…... D7
Alone in a barroom a young girl is sitting
……..... G ………… D
And smiling at nothing at all
….......……... A
And she stares now and then at the eyes of the men
…………............………. A7 …….......….. D
In the mirror that hangs on the wall.
………………………………………….......……... D7
She's waiting for someone and knowing there's no one
…....…. G ……………...............…………. D
Who cares if she comes or she goes,
…......….. A
Just a soul in the shadows the world never sees,
……………….............. A7 …...…. D
She's somebody nobody knows.
Chorus:
G …….......……. A …….......….. D
Someone no one's ever known,
A ……….......…... G ……......….. D .. D7
Crying where no one can hear,
G …………............……… D
Somebody's dying alone
…..... A ………...... A7 …..... D
In a city where nobody cares.
Down in the gutter an old man has fallen
Like something the world threw away.
The late crowd was leaving, and nobody even
Took the time to look down where he lay.
The old man was crying and helplessly trying
To wipe off the stain from his clothes,
Just a soul in the shadows that life left behind.
He's somebody nobody knows.
