As the snow flies, _ _ _ _
_ [C#] [F#] on a cold and gray [B] Chicago [E] morning,
a poor little [B] baby child is born in the ghetto.
_ _ [E] _
_ [B] _ _ _ And his mama cries, _ _ _ _ _ [D#] cause there's one [G#m] thing that [F#] she [G#m] don't need,
is another [E] little [F#] hungry mouth to [B] feed in the ghetto.
_ _ [E] _ [F] _ [F#] _ _
[B] Oh people, don't you understand, this [E] child needs a helping [B]
hand.
[E] He's gonna grow to [F#] be an angry [B] young man someday.
Ah, take a look at you and me, [E] oh, we're that blind [B] to see.
[E] Do we [B] simply turn our heads [C#m] and look the [B] other way?
[F#] _ _ [B]
And the world _ turns, [C#] _ _ [B] _
_ [D#] and the hungry little boy with [E] the runny nose
plays in the streets as a [B] coping blow to him and _ [E] _
_ [B] _ _ _ [E] his hunger burns.
_ _ _ _ [D#] So he stops to [E] roam the streets at night, and he learns how to [F#] steal, and he learns how to [B] fight.
Then _ [E] _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
[D#m] one night in [B] desperation, [Em] a young man [G#m] breaks away.
[C#] He buys a [B] gun and steals a [C#m] car, he tries to run [F#] but he don't get far.
[C#m] _ [E] And his mama [B] cries.
_ [E] _ [B] _ _ _
[D#m] A crowd gathers round an angry young man [E] face down in the [F#] streets with a gun in [B] his hand in the ghetto.
_ _ [E] _ [F] _ [B] _
_ [D#m] Oh people, don't you [B] understand, this [Em] child needs a [B] helping hand.
[E] [B] He's gonna grow to be an angry young man someday.
Hey, take a look at you and me, oh, we're [E] that [B] blind to see.
[E] Do we [D#] simply turn [D#m] our heads [C#m] and look the [F#]
other [B] way? _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [F#] And as the young man, [B] _ _ _ _ _ [F#] on a cold and gray Chicago [E] morning, another [F#] little baby child is born.
_ [G#] _ [B] In the ghetto, _ _ _
[E] _ _ [B] _ _ in the ghetto. _
