Capo 1st Fret
A
As the snow flies.
Amaj7 E
On a cold and grey Chicago morn
Bm E
another liitle baby child is born
A
In the ghetto
A
And his momma cries
Amaj7 E
Cause if there's one thing that she don't need,
Bm
it's another little hungry
E A
mouth to feed In the ghetto
E D A
Now people don't you understand The child needs a helping hand
D E A
Or he'll grow up to be an angry young man some day
E Bm A
Take a look at you and me Are we too blind to see
D Amaj7 Bm E
Or do we simply turn our heads and look the other way
A
well the world turns
Amaj7 E
and a hungry little boy with a runny nose
Bm
plays in the streets
E A
as the cold wind blows in the ghetto And his hunger burns
Amaj7 E Bm
So he starts to roam the streets at night and he learns how to steal
E A
and he learns how to fight In the ghetto
E Bm A
And then one night in desperation the young man breaks away
D Amaj7 Bm E
He buys a gun steals a car tries to run but he don't get far
A
and his momma cries
Amaj7 E
As a crowd gathers round an angry young man
Bm
face down in the street
E A
with a gun in his hand in the ghetto
A
as her young man dies
Amaj7 E Bm E
on a cold and grey Chicago morn' another little baby child is born
A
In the ghetto
And his mama cries...
