There are still some versions of the song, but all of them are in the wrong key,
so this is the one to play along the CD.
[Intro]
Bb Bb
As the Bbsnow flies Bb
On a Dmcold and gray chicago mornin'
A Ebpoor little baby Fchild is born
In the Bbghetto Bb
And his Bbmama cries Bb
Cause if Dmtheres one thing that she don't need
It's anEbother hungry Fmouth to feed
In the Bbghetto Bb
People, dont you Funderstand
The child needs a Ebhelping Bbhand
Or Ebhe'll grow to be an Fangry young man some Bbday
BbTake a look at yFou and me,
Are we too Ebblind to sBbee,
EbDo we simply tDmurn our heads
And Eblook the other wFay
Well the Bbworld turns Bb
And a Dmhungry little boy with a runny nose
EbPlays in the street as the cFold wind blows
In the Bbghetto Bb
And his Bbhunger burns Bb
So he Dmstarts to roam the streets at night
And he Eblearns how to steal
And he Flearns how to fight
In the Bbghetto Bb
FThen one night in desperation
A yoEbung man breaks aBbway
He Ebbuys a gun, Dmsteals a car,
EbTries to run, but he Fdon't get far
And his Bbmama cries Bb
As a cDmrowd gathers round an angry young man
Face Ebdown on the street with a Fgun in his hand
In the gBbhetto Bb
As heBbr young man dies,Bb
On a Dmcold and gray chicago mornin',
AnoEbther little baby Fchild is born
In the Bbghetto Bb
And his Bbmama cries Bb
