Ghetto Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
If you [G]ever lived in a ghetto
And maybe at the close of your [D]day
On your [G]front porch you hear the sound
of a [C]jukebox[A]
[G]From the neighborhood
[C]cafe
[G]

[Verse 2]
Well in the noon you may hear
the neighbors fussing
When a kid breaks a window [D]pane
[G]In the night,
in the night you may be [C]wakene[A]d
[G]By the [C]out[G]bound train

[Interlude 1]
[G]

[Verse 3]
Well the rich [G]folks they own the big city
And they down us who
living the way we [D]do
But when you're [G]born a child
of a [C]poor [A]man
You know [G]the ghetto is the [C]only
place [G]for you

[Verse 4]
[G]Well if there's such a thing
as revolution
And there will be if we rise to [D]the call
When we [G]build we build we build we
build the new [C]Jerusalem[A]
There won't [G]be no more [C]ghetto,
ghetto [G]at all
No there won't be no more [C]ghetto,
ghetto [G]at all

[Outro 1]
