[Eb]
As I was slowly passing an orphan's home [Ab] today, [Bb] I stopped for just a little while to [Bb] watch
the [Eb] children play.
Alone the boy was standing, and when I asked [Ab] him why, [Bb] he turned with eyes that could not see, and he began [Eb] to cry.
I'm nobody's child, I'm [Ab] nobody's child,
[Bb] just like a flower, I'm growing [Eb] wild.
No mama's arms to hold me, no [Ab] daddy's smile,
[Bb] nobody wants me, I'm [Eb] nobody's child.
[Bb]
[Eb]
In every town and village, there are places just like [Ab] this, [Bb] with rows and rows of children,
babies in [Eb] their crib.
They've long since stopped their crying, as no one [Ab] ever hears, [Bb] and no one's there to notice them, or take away their [Eb] fears.
I'm nobody's child, I'm [Ab] nobody's child,
[Bb] just like a flower, I'm growing [Eb] wild.
Got no mommy's kisses, and no [Ab] daddy's smile,
[Bb] nobody wants them, they're [Eb] nobody's child.
I'm nobody's child, I'm [Ab] nobody's child,
[Bb] just like a flower, I'm growing [Eb] wild.
Got no mommy's kisses, and no [Ab] daddy's smile,
[Bb] nobody wants them, they're [Eb] nobody's child.
[Bb] Nobody wants them, they're nobody's [Eb] child.
