Intro: C
CI pity the poor immigraGnt
Who wishes he would've stayed hCome,
CWho uses all his power to do evGil
But in the end is always left so alonCe.
GThat man whom with his fingers cDmheats
GAnd who lies with ev'ryC breath,
CWho passionately hates his lGife
GAnd likewise, fears his deaCth.
Intro
CI pity the poor imGmigrant
Whose strength is spent in vaiCn,
CWhose heaven is like IrGonsides,
Whose tears are like raCin,
GWho eats but is not satDmisfied,
GWho hears but does not seCe,
Who falls in Glove with wealth itself
And turns his back on Cme.
Intro
CI pity the poor immGigrant
Who tramples through the muCd,
Who fills his mouth with laGughing
And who builds his town with blCood,
GWhose visions in the final eDmnd
GMust shatter like the glaCss.
CI pity the poor immGigrant
When his gladness comes to pCass.
