[Verse]
D G As 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
[Verse]
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 D 'Cause I know that it's true that god takes little blind 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 A But then they take some other little child and I'm left 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 D G No mommy's kisses and no daddy's smile A D Nobody wants me I'm nobody's child
