Intro: A D A D
A D A
As the snow flies.
Amaj7 Bm E
On a cold and grey Chicago morn' another liitle baby child is born
A D A D A
In the ghetto
A D A
And his mother cries ( in the ghetto )
Amaj7 Bm
'Cause if there's one thing that she don't need, it's another little hungry
E A D 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 just turn our heads and look the other way
A D A
as the world turns
Amaj7 Bm .
and a hungry little child with a runny nose plays in the streets
E A D A
as the cold wind blows And his hunger burns
Amaj7 Bm
So he starts to roam the streets at night and he learns how to steal
E A D A D A
and he learns how to fight In the ghetto
E Bm A
And then one night in desperation A 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 D A
and his mother cries
Amaj7 Bm
As a crowd gathers 'round an angry young man face down in the street
E
with a gun in his hand
A D A
as her young man dies
Amaj7 Bm E
on a cold and grey Chicago morn' another little baby child is born
A D A
In the ghetto
D A
And his mama cries
