Nobody's Child Uke tab by Kapena (Baritone Chords)

D                          G 
I was slowly passing an orphan's home one day
 D                                   E                  A
And stopped there for a moment just to watch the children play
D                           G 
Alone a boy was standing and when I asked him why
                          D                    G                A           D            
He turned with eyes that could not see and he began to cry

Chorus
D                            G 
I'm nobody's child, I'm nobody's child
A                               D 
I'm like a flower just growing wild
D                      G 
No mommy's kisses and no daddy's smile
A                             D 
Nobody wants me I'm nobody's child

D                            G 
People come for children and take them for their own
D                              E            A 
But they all seem to pass me by and I am left alone
D                                  G
I know they'd like to take me but when they see I'm blind
D                G             A           D                 
They always take some other child and I am left behind


D                              G 
No mother's arms to hold me or soothe me when I cry
D                                  E                A               
Sometimes it gets so lonely here I wish that I could die
D                               G 
I'd walk the streets of heaven where all the blind can see
D                  G                A             D             
And just like all the other kids there'd be a home for me

[spoken]
D                                                G         
I just can't seem to figure out  Why the folks all pass me by
A                                                              
Cause I know that it's true that god takes Little blind
D 
children with him in the sky

D                                           G
And they tell me that I'm oh so pretty And they seem to 
            
like my big curls of gold
D 
But then they take some other little child  And I'm left
D   
here all alone


Chorus
D                           G 
I'm nobody's child, I'm nobody's child
A                              D 
I'm like a flower just growing wild
G 
No mommy's kisses and no daddy's smile
A                             D 
Nobody wants me I'm nobody's child
