[A][G][D]
[A]Tenement slu[G]m[D]
[A]Ooh[E]- ooh, ooh[G]- ooh, ooh[D]- ooh,
[Dm]ooh[E]

[Pre-chorus 1]
[G]You think that I don't feel love
[C]But what I feel for you is real love
[Am]In other's eyes I see reflected,
a [F]hurt, [E]scorned, rejected

[Chorus 1]
[Am]Love child, [G]never meant to be
[F]Love child, [E]born in poverty
[Am]Love child, [G]never meant meant to be
[F]Love [E]child, take a look at me

[Verse 1]
[A]Started my life
in an [G]old, cold, [D]rundown [A]tenement slum
My [G]father left, he [D]never even [A]married mom
I [E]shared the guilt my [G]mama knew
[D]So afraid that [Dm]others knew I [E]had no name

[Pre-chorus 2]
[G]This love we're contemplating
[C]is worth the pain of waiting
[Am]We'll only end up hating
[F]the child we may[E] be creating

[Chorus 2]
[Am]Love child, [G]never meant to be
[F]Love child, (scorned [E]by) society
[Am]Love child, [G]always second best
[F]Love child, (different from)
[E]different from the rest

[Interlude 1]
[A](Hold on, hold on...) Mm,[D] baby
[A](Hold on, hold on...) Mm,[D] baby

[Verse 2]
[A]I started school in a w[G]orn, torn, d[D]ress
that some[A]body threw out
I [G]knew the way it [D]felt to always [A]live in doubt
To [E]be without the [G]simple things
[D]So afraid my [Dm]friends would see the [E]guilt in me

[Pre-chorus 3]
[G]Don't think that I don't need you
[C]Don't think I don't want to please you
[Am]But no child of mine will be bearing
[F]the name of sha[E]me I've been wearin'

[Outro 1]
[Am]Love child, love child, [G]never quite as good
A[F]fraid, ashamed, [E]misunderstood
But [Am]I'll always [G]love you
[F]I'll always [E]love you
[Am](Love child...) I'll always [G]love you
[F]I'll always [E]love you
[Am](Love child...) I'll always [G]love you
[F]I'll always [E]love you
[Repeat and fade]
