As the snow fly
[Dm] On a cold and gray Chicago [Eb] morning a poor little [F] baby child is born [Bb] in the ghetto
And his mama cries
[Dm] Cause if there's one thing that she don't [Eb] need is another hungry mouth to [Bb] feed in the ghetto
[F] People don't you understand your [Eb] child needs a [Bb] helping hand
[Eb] He'll grow to [F] be an angry young [Bb] man someday
[F] Take a look at you and me are [Eb] we too blind [Bb] to see
[Eb] Do we [Dm] simply turn our [Cm] heads and look the other [F] way
Well [Bb] the world turns
[Dm] And a hungry little boy with a runny [Eb] nose plays in the street [F] as the cold wind blows [Bb] in the ghetto
In the ghetto
And his hunger burns
[Dm] So he starts to roam the streets at night [Eb] and he learns how to steal [Dm] and he learns how to fight [Bb] in the ghetto
In the ghetto
[F] Then one night in desperation [Eb] the young man [Bb] breaks away
[Eb] He buys a gun, [Dm] he steals a car, [Cm] he tries to run but he don't get [F] far and his [Bb] mama cries
[Dm] As the crowd gathers round an angry young man [Eb] face down in the street [F] with a gun in his hand [Bb] in the ghetto
In the ghetto
And as her young man dies
In the ghetto
[Dm] On a cold and grey Chicago [Eb] morning another little [F] baby child is born
[Bb] In the ghetto
In the ghetto
And his mama cries
In the ghetto
In the ghetto
