Those Less Fortunate Than I Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][Cm][G][F]
[G]

[Verse 1]
I don't have a lot, [G]but
I'm proud of what I've got
I [Am]can't [D]complain
'Cause I [Am]see people hangin' round,
on the [D]city streets downtown
Living [G]on pocket [Em]change
[G]There're times I've been confused,
felt that I was born to lose
[C]Oh but I survived
Un[D]like the one's [Em]who pray and feel
[D]more than blessed each day
To [G]just be still [D]alive
[C]Is there something

[Verse 2]
[G]we can do
Seems the odds against sur[Am]vival
[G]are a [C]million to one
The only [D]hope they have [Em]will die
In the [D]hearts of you and I if noth
[G]ing's ever [D]done[Em]
[D]I can't [G]save them by myself
Oh but God forbid that [Am]I
[G]just turn [C]my head
And [G]walk [Am]on by
[G]Don't let me be [D]a stranger to those
less fortunate than [G]I[F]

[Verse 3]
Seems [G]that old golden rule,
that I learned back [Am]in school
Has lost [D]its shine
[Am]It's a crying shame,
and I [D]wonder could the blame
[G]Be yours [Em]and mine[G]
Discipline was tough,
and that old principal was rough
[C]But the times were good
'Cause [D]no one ever [Em]found
one [D]single child shot down
[G]In the nei[D]ghborhood
[C]Is there something

[Verse 4]
[G]we can do
Seems the odds against sur[Am]vival
[G]are a [C]million to one
'Cause every [D]day that passes [Em]by
Another [D]street gang victim dies
And still [G]there's nothing
[D]done[Em]
[D]I can't [G]save them by myself
Oh but God forbid [Am]that I just [G]run [C]away
some[G]where [Am]and hide
From the [G]fear and the danger [D]of
those less fortunate [Em]than I[D][C]
Lord don't [G]let me be [D]a stranger to
those less fortunate [G]than I
