[Verse 1]
[G]As the snow flies
On [Bm]a cold and grey Chicago morn
And [C]a poor little baby child
[D]is born in the[G] ghetto
And his momma cried
Cause if [Bm]there's one thing
that she don't need
It's [C]an other hungry mouth
[D]to feed in the [G]ghetto
People, don't [D]you understand?
The child needs [C]a helping [G]hand
He [C]grows to be an [D]angry
young man [G]someday
Take a look at [D]you and me,
are we [C]too blind to [G]see?
[C]Do we simply [Bm]turn our heads,
[Am]look the [D]other way?
Well the [Bm]world [D]turns[G]
And [Bm]a hungry little boy with a runny nose
[C]Plays in the street
as [D]the cold wind blows in [G]the ghetto
So he [Bm]starts to roam the streets at night
And he [C]learns how to steal
and [D]he learns how to fight in [G]the ghetto
[D]Then one night in desperation
the [C]young man breaks [G]away
He [C]buys a gun, he [Bm]steals a car
He [Am]tries to run but [D]he don't get far
And his mama [G]cries[D][G]
As [Bm]the crowd gathers round
an angry young man
Face [C]down in the street
with [D]a gun in his hand
And he [G]gets old
Another young man dies
On a [Bm]cold and grey Chicago morning
And an[C]other little baby child
[D]is born in the[G] ghetto
And his mama cries
And his mama cries
And the world is turning
And his mama cries you
