I was slowly passing an orphan’s home one day
C
D7
G7
And stopped there for a moment just to watch the children play
C
F
A lonely boy was standing and when I asked him why
C
G7
C
He turned with eyes that could not see and he began to cry
C7
F
I’m nobody’s child I´m nobody’s child
G7
C
I´m like a flower just growing wild
C7
F
No mommy´s kisses no daddy’s smile
G7
C
Nobody wants me I’m nobody’s child
F
People come for children and take them for their own
C
D7
G7
But they all seem to pass me by and leave me all alone
C
F
I know they’d like to take me but when they see I’m blind
C
G7
C
They always take some other child and I am left behind
F
No mommy´s arms to hold me or sooth me when I cry
C
D7
G7
Sometimes it gets so lonely here I wish that I could die
C
F
I´d walk the streets of heaven where all the blind can see
C
G7
C
And just like all the other kids there´d be a home for me
C
I just can´t seem to figure out
F
Why the folks all pass me by
C
Cause I know that it´s true that God takes
D7
G7
Little blind children with Him in the sky
C
And they tell me I´m so pretty
F
And they seem to like my big curls of gold
C
But then they take some other little child
G7
C
And I´m left here all alone
C7
F
I’m nobody’s child I´m nobody’s child
G7
C
I´m like a flower just growing wild
C7
F
No mommy´s kisses no daddy’s smile
G7
C
Nobody wants me I’m nobody’s child
