Verse
G# G# *
As the snow flies
Cm
On a cold and grey Chicago mornin'
C# D#
G# poor little baby child is born
G# G# *
In the ghetto
[Verse 2]
G# G# *
And his mama cries
Cm
'cause if there's one thing that she don't need
C# D#
It's another hungry mouth to feed
G# G# *
In the ghetto
[Chorus]
D#
People don't you understand
C# G#
The child needs a helping hand
C# D# G#
Or he'll grow to be an angry young man some day
D#
Take a look at you and me,
C# G#
Are we too blind to see
C# Cm A#m D#
Do we simply turn our heads and look the other way
[Verse 3]
G# G# *
Well the world turns
Cm
And a hungry little boy with a runny nose
C# D#
Plays in the street as the cold wind blows
G# G# *
In the ghetto
[Verse 4]
G# G# *
And his hunger burns
Cm
so he starts to roam the streets at night
C# D#
And he learns how to steal, and he learns how to fight
G# G# *
In the ghetto
[Bridge]
D#
Then one night in desperation
C# G#
G# young man breaks away
C# Cm
He buys a gun, steals a car,
A#m D#
Tries to run, but he don't get far
[Verse 5]
G# G# *
And his mama cries
Cm
As a crowd gathers 'round an angry young man
C# D#
Face down on the street with a gun in his hand
G# G# *
In the ghetto
[Verse 6]
G# G# *
As her young man dies,
Cm
On a cold and grey Chicago mornin'
C# D#
Another little baby child is born
G# G# *
In the ghetto
G# G# *
And his mama cries...
