The moon shines down upon it all
     A           E
The legless and asleep

There's a chink of light
There's a burning wick
            A
There's a lantern in the tower

Still writing songs in the wee wee hours
 F#m
On Charlotte Street I take
            A
a walking stick from my hotel

The ghost of Dirty Dick
  A                    E
Is still in search of Little Nell
