As I was slowly passing an orphan's home today
    B7                                                 E
I'd stop for just a little while to watch the children play
                               E7               A
Alone, a boy was standing, and when I asked him why
   B7                                                  E
He turned with eyes that could not see and he began to cry
  
    E                   E7        A     B7                              E
I'm nobody's child, I'm nobody's child, Just like a flower, I'm growing wild
                          E7         A      B7                            E
No mama's arms to hold me no daddy's smiles Nobody wants me, I'm nobody's child

In every town and village there are places just like this
     B7                                        E
With rows and rows of children babys in their cribs
                                              E7          A
They've long since stopped their crying cause no one ever hears
    B7                                               E
And no one's there to notice them or take away their tears


E               E7        A     B7                                E
Nobody's child, nobody's child, Just like a flower, their growing wild
                      E7         A      B7                                E
Got no mommies kisses no daddy's smiles Nobody wants them, their nobody's child

E                     E7        A     B7                                E
Nobody's child, their nobody's child, Just like a flower, their growing wild
                 E7         A      B7                                E
No mama's kisses no daddy's smiles Nobody wants them, their nobody's child

B7                        n.C.       E
Nobody wants them.. their no__body's child
