Hank Snow - Nobodys Child Chords

                    D                          G
                    I was slowly passing an orphan's home one day
                         D                                   E                  A
                    And stopped there for a moment just to watch the children play
                       D                           G
                    Alone a boy was standing and when I asked him why
                          D                    G                A           D            
                    He turned with eyes that could not see and he began to cry
Chorus
                          D                            G
                    I'm nobody's child, I'm nobody's child
                     A                               D
                    I'm like a flower just growing wild
                    D                      G
                    No mommy's kisses and no daddy's smile
                     A                             D
                    Nobody wants me I'm nobody's child


                     D                            G
                    People come for children and take them for their own
                         D                              E            A
                    But they all seem to pass me by and I am left alone
                     D                                  G
                    I know they'd like to take me but when they see I'm blind
                            D                G             A           D                 
                    They always take some other child and I am left behind


                     D                              G
                    No mother's arms to hold me or soothe me when I cry
                     D                                  E                A               
                    Sometimes it gets so lonely here I wish that I could die
                         D                               G
                    I'd walk the streets of heaven where all the blind can see
                         D                  G                A             D             
                    And just like all the other kids there'd be a home for me

[spoken]
                              D                                                G         
                    I just can't seem to figure out  Why the folks all pass me by
                          A                                                              
                    Cause I know that it's true that god takes Little blind
                        D
                    children with him in the sky

                    D                                           G
                    And they tell me that I'm oh so pretty And they seem to 
            
                    like my big curls of gold
                          D
                    But then they take some other little child  And I'm left
                               D   
                    here all alone


    Chorus
                          D                           G
                   I'm nobody's child, I'm nobody's child
                     A                              D
                   I'm like a flower just growing wild
                                          G
                   No mommy's kisses and no daddy's smile
                     A                             D
                   Nobody wants me I'm nobody's child
