G#m
Verse 1
G#m
On the streets of New York City,
C#m
D#
when the hour was getting late,
G#m
There were young men armed
with knives and guns,
C#m
D#
young men armed with hay,
G#m
And Lumash stepped between them
B
F#
G#m
and he died there in his tracks
For one man is no army
C#m
F#
when the city turns its back
B
But now the streets are empty,
C#m
now the streets are dark
F#
So keep an eye on shadows
G#m
and nev er pass the park
C#m
when the Lord is out of sight
F#
And death looks in El Barrio
G#m
with the orphans of the night
He left behind a chamber
C#m
of a church he served so long
D#
G#m
Where he learned the prayers
of distant men
C#m
D#
Will never right the wrongs
G#m
His church became an alley
B
F#
G#m
And his pulpit was the street
And he made his congregation
C#m
F#
From the boys he used to meet
B
But now the streets are empty
C#m
Now the streets are dark
F#
So keep an eye on the shadows
G#m
And never pass the park
C#m
When the law is out of sight
F#
And death looks an albarrio
G#m
With the orphans of the night
There were two gangs approaching
C#m
In Spanish Harlem town
D#
G#m
The smell of blood was in the air
A#dim
D#
and the chal lenge was laid down
G#m
He felt their blinding hatred
B
F#
G#m
and he tried to save their lives
And the answer that they gave him
C#m
was their fists and feet and knives
F#
B
And now the streets are empty,
C#m
now the streets are dark
F#
So keep an eye on shadows
G#m
and never pass the park
C#m
when the lore is out of sight
F#
And death looks in El Barrio
G#m
with the orphans of the night
Will Lumash, life forgotten,
C#m
D#
in his cold and silent grave
G#m
Will his memories still linger on,
C#m
D#
in those he tried to save
G#m
And all of us who knew him,
B
F#
will now and then recall
G#m
And shed a tear on poverty,
C#m
F#
the tombstone of us all
B
But now the streets are empty,
C#m
now the streets are dark
F#
So keep an eye on the shadows
G#m
and nev er pass the park
C#m
when the Lord is out of sight
F#
And death lurks in our barrio
G#m
With the orphans of the night
