Nobody's Child Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][D][G][D]

[Verse 1]
[G]I was slowly passing
an [C]orphan's home one day
An[G]d stopped there for a moment
[D]just to [G]watch the[D] children play
[G]Alone a boy was standing
and [C]when I asked him why
He [G]turned with eyes that could
not see [D]and he began to [G]cry

[Verse 2]
[G]I'm nobody's child, I'm nobody's [C]child
[D]I'm like a f[C]lower just growing wil[G]d
No mommy's kisses and no daddy's [C]smile
[D]Nobody wants me I'm
nobody's child
[G][D]

[Verse 3]
[G]People come for children and
[C]take them for their own
But [G]they all seem to pass me by
and I am left [D]alone
[G]I know they'd like to take me but
[C]when they see I'm blind
[G]They always take some other
child and [D]I am left behind
[G]

[Verse 4]
No mother's arms to hold
me or soothe me when [D]I cry
Some[C]times [D]it gets so lonely here
I wish that I could die
[C]I'd walk the streets of [G]heaven
where all the blind can see
And just like all the other
kids there'd be [C]a h[D]ome for me

[Verse 5]
I just can't [D]seem to figure out
Why the folks all pass [G]me by[D]
[G]Cause I know that it's true
[C]that god takes
[G]Little blind children with him in the sky
And they tell [D]me [G]that I'm oh so pretty
[C]And they seem to like my big curls of gold
But [G]then they take
some other little child
[D]And I'm [G]left [E]here all alone

[Verse 6]
I'm [A]nobody's child,
I'm nobody's [D]child
[E]I'm like a flower [D]just growing [A]wild
No mommy's kisses and no
daddy's [D]smile
[E]Nobody wants me I'm nobody's child

[Outro 1]
