[Intro]
G
[Verse]
G
As the snow flies
Bm
On a cold and grey Chicago morning
C D G
A poor little baby child is born in the ghetto
G
And his mamma cries
Bm
'Cos if there's one thing that
she dont need
C D
It is another hungry mouth to
G
feed in the ghetto
[Chorus]
D
People dont you understand
C G
The child needs a helping hand
C D G
Or he'll gonna be an angry young man some day
D
Take a look at you and me
C G
Are we too blind to see
C Bm Am D
Or do we simply turn our heads and look the other way
[Verse]
G
Well, the world turn
Bm
And a hungry little boy with a runny nose
C D G
Plays in the street as the cold wind blows in the ghetto
G
And his hunger burns
Bm
So he starts to roam the streets at night
C D
And he learns how to steal and he learns
G
how to fight in the ghetto
[Chorus]
D C
Then one night in desperation the young
G
man breaks the rules
C Bm
He buys a gun, he steals a car,
Am D
He tries to run but he dont get far
[Verse]
G
And his mamma cries
Bm
As a crowd gathers round an angry young man
C D
Face down in the street with a gun in his
G
hand in the ghetto
G
And as her young man dies
Bm
On a cold and grey Chicago morning
C D G
Another little baby child is born in the ghetto
G
And his mamma cries
