Intro 1
(G major)
Verse 1
(G major) As the snow flies
On a (B minor) cold and gray Chicago mornin'
A (C major) poor little baby child (D major) is born
In the (G major) ghetto
(In the ghetto)
Verse 2
And (G major) his mama cries
'Cause if (B minor) there's one thing
that she don't need
It's an (C major) other hungry mouth (D major) to feed
In the (G major) ghetto
(In the ghetto)
Verse 3
People, don't (D major) you understand
The child needs a (C major) helping hand (G major)
Or (C major) he'll grow to be an (D major) angry
young man some (G major) day
Take a look at (D major) you and me,
Are we too blind (C major) to see? (G major)
(C major) Do we simply turn (B minor) our heads
(A minor) and look the other way? (D major)
(G major) Well,
Verse 4
the world turns
And a (B minor) hungry little boy with a runny nose
(C major) Plays in the street as the (D major) cold wind blows
In the (G major) ghetto
(In the ghetto)
Verse 5
And his hunger burns (G major)
So he (B minor) starts to roam
the streets at night
And he (C major) learns how to steal,
and he (D major) learns how to fight
In the (G major) ghetto
(In the (D major) ghetto)
Verse 6
Then one night in desperation (C major) (G major) (C major) (B minor)
(A minor) (D major) (G major)
(B minor) (C major) (D major) (G major)
(B minor)
(C major) (D major) (G major)
