A Child in These Hills Jackson Browne
-----------------------------------------
I am a [D]child[G] in t[A]hese h[D]ills
I am aw[A]ay
I am al[D]one [G] [A]
I am a [D]child[G] in t[A]hese h[D]ills [G]
And [A]looking for [D]water [G]
And [A]looking for [D]life
Who will [A]show me the river and [G]ask my name?
Is there [D]nobody [D/F#]here who'll [G]do that? [Em/A]
Well I have [D]come to these hills[G/A]
I will [D]come to the river [G] [G/A]
As I [D]choose to be [G/A]gone from the [D]house of my father [G] [G/A]
I am a [G]chi[G/F#]ld [Em] [A]in these [D]hills [G] [A]
I am A [G]chi[G/F#]ld [Em] [A] [D] [D/E] [D/F#]

[Bb]Chased from the gates of the city where no one had [F]touched me
I am [A]away
I am [G]alone
I am a [Bm]child in these [E7]hills
