Intro: Bb Verse: Bb As the snow flies Dm On a cold and grey Chicago morning Eb F Bb A poor little baby child is born in the ghetto Bb And his Mama cries Dm Cos if there's one thing that she dont need Eb F Bb It is another hungry mouth to feed in the ghetto
Chorus:
F
People dont you understand
Eb Bb
The child needs a helping hand
Eb F Bb
Or he'll gonna be an angry young man some day
F
Take a look at you and me
Eb Bb
Are we too blind to see
Eb Dm Cm F
Or do we simply turn our heads and look the other way
Verse 2:
Bb
Well the world turn
Dm
And a hungry little boy with a runny nose
Eb F Bb
Plays in the street as the cold wind blows in the ghetto
Bb
And his hunger burns
Dm
So he starts to roam the streets at night
Eb F Bb
And he learns how to steal and he learns how to fight in the ghetto
Chorus 2:
F Eb Bb
Then one night in desperation the young man breaks the rules
Eb Dm
He buys a gun he steals a car
Cm F
He tries to run but he dont get far
Verse 3:
Bb
And his Mama cries
Dm
As a crowd gathers round an angry young man
Eb F Bb
Face down in the street with a gun in his hand in the ghetto
Bb
And as a young man dies
Dm
On a cold and grey Chicago morning
Eb F Bb
Another little baby child is born in the ghetto
Bb
And his Mama cries Published:
