[Verse 1]
She's lookin' for [Dm]a way out of this hole
She's [C]out on her own,
with hungry mouths to [G]feed[Dm]
The precious little she scratches on the dole
[C]Is barely enough to cover
all [Dm]their needs

[Verse 2]
It hurts to see her [Dm]once strong frame
[C]Broken down, by the constant
blows [Dm]of rejection
And now in place of the
sweetest [Am]smile
[C]She wears a frown,
of worry and [F]dejection
[Dm]Oh it's a cold,

[Verse 3]
cold [F]world[G]
[that turns it's back [C]on[Am]
[F]you]
[Dm]When you're cryin out
for a little [Gsus4]love
A [G]little [C]love and understandin'
[Am]People at the

[Verse 4]
top looking [Dm]down
They don't wanna [Em]know whose
at the back of [Bb]the line
People [C]at the [Am]top look[Dm]ing down
Can't re[Em]late to
[Bb]our troubled minds
People [C]at the

[Verse 5]
[Am]top looking down

[Verse 6]
People at the top
[Dm]
She's all caught up in
these inner city blues
[C]Out of control, she's losin' her [Dm]mind
Her story's told but it's
second hand news
To [C]a world without care,
they've heard it all be[Dm]fore

[Verse 7]
Tryin' to do the [Dm]best she can
But [C]she's losin' faith in all
that she be[Dm]lieves [Am]in
[Dm]The light is fading and
hope is [Am]dissipatin'
[C]They say that they listen,
Lord knows that they don't [F]hear
[Dm]Oh, it's a cold,

[Verse 8]
cold [F]world [G][that turns
it's [C]back [Am]on y[F]ou]
When you're cryin [Dm]out for a [Gsus4]little love
[G]A little lov[C]e and un [G]der[Gsus4]standin'[Am]
