[F#] [E] [F#]
[D#m] [C#m] [D#m] [B]
As I was slowly passing [E] an orphan's home one day, [B] I stopped there for a moment just [C#] to watch the children [F#] play.
[B] Alone a boy was standing [E] and when I asked him why, [B] he turned with [E] eyes that could not see [F#] and he began [B] to cry.
I'm nobody's child, I'm [E] nobody's child, [F#] I'm like a flower just growing [B]
wild.
No mommy's kisses [E] and no daddy's smile, [F#] nobody wants me, I'm [B] nobody's child.
People come for children [E] to take them for their own, [B] but they all seem to pass me by [C#] and I am [F#] left alone.
[B] I know they'd like to take me, [E] but when they see I'm blind, [B] they always take [E] some other child [F#] and I am [B] left behind.
I'm nobody's child, I'm [E] nobody's child, [F#] I'm like a flower just growing [B]
wild.
No mommy's kisses [E] and no daddy's smile, [F#] nobody wants me, I'm [B] nobody's child.
[G] [C] No mommy's arms to hold me [F] or soothe me when I cry, [C] sometimes it gets so lonely here [D] I wish that I [G] could die.
[C] I'd walk the streets of heaven [F] where all the blind can see [C] and just like [F] all the other kids, [G] they'd be a [C] home for me.
I'm nobody's child, I'm [F] nobody's child, [G] I'm like a flower just growing [C]
wild.
No mommy's kisses [F] and no daddy's smile, [G] nobody wants me, I'm [C] nobody's child.
