(Music + Lyrics: Blackmore,
Gillan, Glover, Lord, Paice) 4.34
If you're leaving, close the door
I'm not expecting people any more
Hear me grieving, I'm lying on the floor
Whether I'm drunk or dead
I really ain't too sure
I'm a blind man
I'm a blind man
And my world is pale
When a blind man cries
Lord you know, there ain't no sadder tale
Solo
Had a friend once, in a room
Had a good time,
But it ended much too soon
In a cold month, in that room
We found a reason for the things
We had to do
I'm a blind man
I'm a blind man
Now my room is cold
When a blind man cries
Lord you know, he feels it from his soul
Solo
Repeat Chorus
