Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Ooh, oo[G]h, ooh, ooh, [D]oo h, [G]ooh, ooh,
ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, [D]ooh, ooh, ooh
As I was slowly passing
an [G]orphan's home one day
I stopped [D]there for a little while,
just to watch the [E]children [A]play.
[D]Alone, a boy was standing,
and [G]when I asked him why,
He [D]turned with eyes that could[G]n't see,
an[A]d he began to c[D]ry.[G][D]
People come for children,
and [G]take them for their own,
But [D]they all seem to pass me by,
and [E]I'm left [A]alone
I [D]know they'd like to take me,
but [G]when they see I'm blind
They [D]always take some [G]other child,
and [A]I'm left be[D]hind[G][D]
I'm nobody's child,
I'm nobody's [G]child
[A]Just like a flower, I'm growing [D]wild
I ain't got no mammy's kisses,
and [G]no daddy's smile
[A]Nobody wants me,
I'm nobody's [D]child[G][Bb]
No [Eb]mother's arms to hold me,
or [Ab]soothe me when I cry
[Eb]Some[Fm]times [Eb]it gets so lonely, oh
I [F]wish that I could [Bb]die
I'd [Eb]walk the streets of heaven,
where [Ab]all the blind can see
And [Eb]just like all the [Ab]oth er kids,
there'd [Bb]be a home for me[Eb][Ab][Eb]
I'm nobody's child,
I'm nobody's [Ab]child
[Bb]Just like a flower, I'm growin' [Eb]wild
I ain't got no mammy's kisses,
and [Ab]no daddy's smile
[Bb]Nobody wants me,
I'm nobody's [Eb]child
[Ab]Nobody's [Eb]child[Ab][Eb]
