God Bless the Child Billie Holiday
[Intro]
[Ebmaj7] [Abmaj7] [Ebmaj7] [Abmaj7]
[Verse 1]
Them that's [Ebmaj7]got shall [Abmaj7]get
Them that's [Ebmaj7]not shall [Abmaj7]lose[Bbm7]
So the [Eb7]Bible said [Bbm7] and it [Eb7]still is news[Abmaj7]
[Cborus]
Mama [Ebmaj7]may have, [Abm7] Papa [F7]may have[Gm7]
But God bless the [C7]child that's got his [Fm7]own[Bb7]
That's got his [Ebmaj7]own[Abmaj7] [Ebmaj7] [Abmaj7]
[Verse 2]
Yes, the [Ebmaj7]strong just gets mo[Abmaj7]re
While the [Ebmaj7]weak ones fade aw[Abmaj7]ay[Bbm7]
Empty [Eb7]pockets won't [Bbm7] ever [Eb7]make the grade[Abmaj7]
[Cborus]
Mama [Ebmaj7]may have, [Abm7] Papa [F7]may have[Gm7]
But God bless the [C7]child that's got his [Fm7]own[Bb7]
That's got his [Ebmaj7]own[Abmaj7] [Ebmaj7] [Abmaj7] [Cm7]
[Bridge]
When you've got [Cmin/maj7]money, [Cmin7] you've got lots of [Cm6]friends
Just [Gm7]crowding [Cm6]round the [Gm7]door[Gm7] [Cm7]
But when it's gone[Cmin/maj7], and the [Cm7]spending ends[Cm6]
They [Gm7]don't come [D7]round no [G7]more[G7]
Rich re[Cm7]lations [Cmin/maj7]bring you[Cm7]
Crusts of [Cm6]bread and such[Gm7]
You can help your[C7]self
But don't [Fm7] take too [Bb7]much[Ebmaj7]
[Cborus]
Mama [Abmaj7]may have, [Am7] Papa [F7]may have[Gm7]
But God bless the [C7]child that's got his [Fm7]own[Bb7]
That's got his [Ebmaj7]own[Abmaj7] [Ebmaj7]
Mama [Abmaj7]may have, [Abm7] Papa [F7]may have[Gm7]
But God bless the [C7]child that's got his [Fm7]own[Bb7]
That's got his [Ebmaj7]own [Abmaj7] [Ebmaj7]
