[INTRO]

[G] [Bm] [Bm7] [C] [D] [G] [Bm] [G] [C] [D]

[VERSE 1]

[G]Theres a boy who [G7]plays down in the [Em]coal yard [G7]
[C]His mother [D]just got her [G]divorce [Bm] [Bm7]
And [C]everyday he [D]goes a little [G]hungry
And [A]takes it as a [A7]matter of [D]course [Em] [F#m]
[G]Tho' he's never [G7]really known a [Em7]daddy [G]
[C]He's never [D]had too many [G]toys [D] [Bm] [C]
He be[D]lieves in a [G]heart filled with [Em]hope
[A]Somewhere theres a [A7]glimmer of j[D]oy [D7]
And [G]often I have [C]pondered the [G]question [Bm] [Bm7]
[C]In my own [D]way I am but [G]one [Bm] [Bm7]
[C]Why must the [D]beautiful [G]children [Em]
[A]Pay for [A7]what we have [Am]done [Am7]
[D]And if [Em]anything was [C]ever said or [G]written
[D]That I [Em]hold in my h[A]eart to be [Am]true [C] [D]
It is [G]suff[Bm]er l[Bm7]ittle [C]children [A]
[Am]Come [D]unto [G]me [Bm] [Bm7] [C]
You will [D]all be re[G]warded and [E]loved [A]
In the [D]Kingdom with [G]me [Bm] [Bm7] [C] [D] [A] [C#m] [C#m7] [D] [E] [E7]

[VERSE 2]

[A]Theres a girl who [A7]plays down in the [F#m]getto [A]
They [D]come and put her [E]brother back in [A]jail [C#m] [C#m7]
And [D]everyday you [E]see her on the [A]sidewalks
[B7]Waitin' on his love in the [E]mail [F#m] [G#m]
[A]And tho' she kinda' [A7]likes the social [F#m7]worker [A]
And the [D]Foster family [E]really doesn't [A]mind [E] [C#m] [D]
'Cause she [E]believes in a [A]heart filled with [F#m]hope
[F#m7]Someone will come [B7]forward and be [Bm]kind [E]
And [A]often I have [D]pondered the [A]question [A7] [C#m]
[D]Lord in my own [E]way I am but [A]one
[D]Why must the [E]beautiful c[A]hildren [F#m] [Bm]
Pay for [B]what we have [Bm7]done [E]
And if [F#m]anything was [D]ever said or [A]written
That I [F#m]hold in my [B7]heart to be [Bm7]true [E]
It is [A]suf[A7]fer little [D]children to [Bm]
Come [E]unto [A]me [E] [C#m] [D]
You will [E]all be [A]rewarded and [F#m]loved [Bm7]
In the [E]Kingdom with [A]me [C#m] [C#m7] [D]
In the [E]Kingdom with [A]me [C#m] [C#m7] [D] [E] [E7] [A]
