In The Ghetto Chords by Elvis Presley

_ _ _ _ [Am] _ _ [Dm] _ [C] _
_ _ _ as the snow _ _ flies
On [Em] a cold and gray Chicago [F] morning a poor little [G] baby child is [Am] born in [C] the ghetto _
_ _ _ _ And his mama _ _ cries
_ _ [Em] But if there's one thing that she don't [F] need it's another [G] hungry mouth to [C] feed in the ghetto
_ _ People _ [Bb]
[G] don't you understand
_ [F] _ _ [C] _
Johnny
[F] Are you gonna [G] be an angry young man [C] someday?
[G] Take a look at you and me.
I'll be [F] too blind [C] to see
[F] How do we [Em] simply turn our heads [Dm] and look the other [G] way?
[C] Well the world _ turns
_ _ _ [Em] And I'm a little boy with the run he knows [F] plays in the [G] street is a cold wind [Dm] blows in the [C] ghetto
_ _ _ _ And his hunger burn
So _ _ _ [E] he starts [Em] to roam the streets at night [F] and he learns how to [G] steal and he learns how to [C] fight in the ghetto
_ _ _ _ [Am] Then _ [G] one night in desperation [F] the young man [C] breaks away
[F] He buys a [Em] gun he steals a car [Dm] tries to run [G] but he don't get far and his [C] mama cries
_ _ As [Em] the crowd gathers round an angry young [F] man face down in the [G] street with a gun in his hand in the [C] ghetto _
_ _ And _ as no young man _ dies
On [Em] a cold and gray Chicago [F] morning another little baby [G] child is born
_ In the [C] ghetto _ _
_ _ _ And his mama _ _ cries _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _
