INTRO: G   C G   D   G

                             C    G
Now tell the troubles of the poor child
          D
For it is time
            G                 C    G
To tell the struggles and the hard life
           D
Of one without
          G
Of one so young


                             C   G
Now tell the cold and hungry morning
            D
In which to wake
         G             C G
A mother crying at the table
          D
Empty and bare
              G
And her heart breaks


             C               G    D
Now tell the troubles of the poor child
            Em              C D
The joys of life are not to know
          G                    C G
A sapling starved from sun and water
       D
Cannot thrive
       G
Cannot grow


INSTRUMENTAL: G   C G   D  G   C G   D   G  C  G D   Em   C D  G   C G   D   G



                                 C   G
Now tell these troubles from the mountains
       D
To the sea
             G             C    G
And let them ring in every kind soul
             D
With ears to hear
            G
And eyes to see


             C               G    D
Now tell the troubles of the poor child
          Em             C D
For their voices are too small
             G              C  G
And let them drink a cup of comfort
             D
And let them sing
         G
Among us all


             C               G    D
Now tell the troubles of the poor child
          Em             C D
For their voices are too small
             G              C  G
And let them drink a cup of comfort
             D
And let them sing
         G
Among us all
                           C   G      D   G
And let them drink a cup of comfort
