Verse 1
(G major) Two little children, a (C major) boy and (G major) a girl,
sat down by the old church (D major) door.
(G major) The little girl's cheek was as
(C major) brown
(G major) as the curl that fell on the
(D major) dress that she (G major) wore.
The little boy's coat was
all rugged (C major) and (G major) torn,
a tear shone in each little (D major) eye.
Why (G major) don't you go home
to your (C major) mama (G major) they said
And this was the (D major) maiden's (G major) reply
We can't earn our bread
we're too little (C major) she (G major) said
Jim's five and I'm only sev (D major) en
(G major) We've no one to love us
(C major) since papa's (G major) away
And darling (D major) mama's (G major) in heaven
Mama's in heaven,
an (C major) gels took her (G major) away,
left Jim and I all (D major) alone.
(G major) And Papa got lost on the
(C major) sea long (G major) ago,
we have (D major) no mama nor home. (G major)
The sexton came early to
(C major) ring the church (G major) bell
and found them beneath the snow (D major) white.
(G major) The angels made room
for two (C major) orphans to dwell
(G major) In heaven with Mama that night.
