       G#
As the snow flies
     Cm  
On a cold and grey Chicago morning 
  C#               D#
A poor little baby child is born 
       G#
In the ghetto 

        G#
And his mama cries 
          Cm
'Cause if there's one thing that she don't need 
      C#            D#
It's another hungry mouth to feed 
       G#
In the ghetto 

                    D#
So people won't you understand 
                  C#      G#
The child needs a helping hand 
   C#                  D#                   G#
Or he'll grow to be an angry young man some day 
               D#
Take a look at you and me 
           C#       G#
Are we too blind to see
C#           Cm                 A#m            D#
Do we simply turn our heads and look the other way

         G#
Well the world turns 
      Cm
And a poor little boy with a runny nose 
C#                            D#
Plays in the street where the cold wind blows 
       G#
In the ghetto 

        G#
And his hunger burns 
      Cm
So he starts to roam the streets at night 
       C#                         D#
And he learns how to steal and he learns how to fight 
       G#
In the ghetto 

D#
Then one night in desperation 
  C#                G#
A young man breaks away 
   C#                  G#
He finds a gun, and he steals a car
       C#                   D#
And he tries to run, but he doesn't get far 

        G#
And his mama cries 
     Cm
As a crowd gathers 'round an angry young man 
C#                             D#
Face down on the street with a gun in his hand 
       G#
In the ghetto 

           G#
And as her young man dies 
     Cm
On a cold and grey Chicago morning 
 C#                 D#
Another little baby child is born 
       G#
In the ghetto
       G#
In the ghetto
       G#
In the ghetto.
