Cranberries: In the Ghetto

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

G#

In the ghetto
