	A	C#m7
	As the snow flies... On a	cold and grey Chicago morning

	D	E7	A
A	poor little baby	child is born in the	ghetto

	A	C#m7
And his	mamma cries... 'Cos if t	here's one thing that she dont need

	D	E7	A
It's	another hungry mo	uth to feed in the g	hetto

	E
People dont you u	nderstand

	D	A
The child needs a h	elping h	and

	D	E	A
Or h	e'll gonna be an a	ngry young man some d	ay

	E
Take a look at y	ou and me

	D	A
Are we too bl	ind to s	ee

	D	C#m	Bm	E7
Or d	o we simply t	urn our heads and l	ook the other	way

	A	C#m7
Well, the	world turns... And a	hungry little boy with a runny nose

	D	E7	A
	Plays in the street as the	cold wind blows in the	ghetto

	A	C#m7
And his	hunger burns... So he	starts to roam the streets at night

	D	E7	A
And he	learns how to steal and he	learns how to fight in the g	hetto

	E	D	A
Th	en one night in desperation the y	oung man breaks a	way

	D	C#m7
He b	uys a gun, he s	teals a car,

	Bm	E7
He t	ries to run but he	dont get far

	A	C#m7
And his	mamma cries... As a	crowd gathers round an angry young man

	D	E7	A
Face	down in the street with a	gun in his hand in the g	hetto

	A	C#m7
And as her	young man dies... On a	cold and grey Chicago morning

	D	E7	A
An	other little baby c	hild is born in the gh	etto...
