Hey Guys!! 
This is my vesion of Streets Of London by Ralph McTell.
It is actually played with finger-picking 
In my view it's verry easy

Verse 1
  C                G              Am          E E7 
Have you seen the old man in the closed down market
  F             C               F        G G7
Kicking up the papers with his worn out shoes?
 C                G           Am               E       E7
In his eyes you see no pride hand held loosely by his side
F            C             G7          C
Yesterday's paper telling yesterday's news


Chorus
    F           E   E7           C   Am
So how can you tell me you're lonely
D                                   G G7
And say for you that the sun don't shine
C                G               Am          
Let me take you by the hand and lead you through the 
  E          E7
Streets of London
F              C            G7                  C
I'll show you something to make you change your mind.


Verse 2 (Same chords following)
Have you seen the old girl who walks the streets of London
Dirt in her hair and her clothes in rags?
She's no time for talkin' she just keeps right on walkin' 
Carrying her home in two carrier bags.

Chorus

Verse 3
In the all night cafe at a quarter past eleven 
Same old man sitting there on his own
Looking at the world over the rim of his tea cup
And each tea last an hour and he wanders home along

Chorus

Verse 4
Have you seen the old man outside the seman's mission
Memory fading with the medal ribbons that he wears?
And in our winter city the rain cries a little pity
For one more forgotten hero and a world that doesn't care.
