Intro: G# Gsus G# Gsus
G# Gsus
As the snow flies.
G# Bbm Es
On a cold and grey Chicago morn' a poor little baby child is born
G# Gsus
In the ghetto
G# Gsus
And his mother cries (in the ghetto)
G# Bbm
'Cause if there's one thing that she don't need, it's another hungry
Es G# Gsus
mouth to feed In the ghetto
Es C# G#
So people won’t you understand the child needs a helping hand
C# Es G#
Or he'll grow to be an angry young man some day
Es Bbm G#
And take a look at you and me Are we too blind to see
C# G# Bbm Es
Or do we simply turn our heads and look the other way
G# Gsus
While the world turns
G# Bbm
And a poor little boy with a runny nose plays in the streets
Es G# Gsus
While the cold wind blows in the ghetto
G# Gsus
and his hunger burns
G# Bbm
So he starts to roam the streets at night and he learns how to steal
Es G# Gsus
And he learns how to fight in the ghetto
Es Bbm G#
And then one night in desperation the young man breaks away
C# G# Bbm Es
He finds a gun and he steals a car and he tries to run but he doesn't get far
G# Gsus
And his mother cries
G# Bbm
As a crowd gathers 'round an angry young man face down in the street
Es G# Gsus
With a gun in his hand in the ghetto
G#
And this young man dies
G# Bbm Es
On a cold and grey Chicago morn' another little baby child is born
G#
In the ghetto
G#
In the ghetto
