Intro: F5 C5 A5 x3

F5       C5   A5
I saw a girl flip a stroller
F5        C5           A5     
That was holding her baby sister
F5          C5       A5
Her mother screamed and came runnin
F5          C5       A5     
I couldn't believe what I'd seen

        F5     C5       F5      C5     G5
It's a cruel world, a cruel cruel world!
        F5     C5       F5      C5     G5
It's a cruel world, a cruel cruel world!

There's a man on my corner
F5        C5       A5
He's been layin face down for days
