G
If you ever lived in a ghetto

G                              D7    
And maybe at the close of your day

G                                           C         A7
On your front porch you hear the sound of a jukebox

G                C    G
From the neighborhood cafe

G
Well, in the noon you may hear the neighbors fussing

G                          D7
When a kid breaks a window-pane

G                                     C         A7
In the night, in the night you may be wakened

G                  C        G 
By the sound of he outbound train

G                                      
Well, the rich folks they own the big city

G                                      D7 
And they down us who living the way we do

G                                 C          A7
But when you're born a child of a poor man

G                          C              G
You know the ghetto is the only place for you

G 
Well, if there's such a thing as revolution

G                                   D7
And there will be if we rise to the call

G                                                   C           A7  
When we build, we build, we build, we build the new Jerusalem

G                      C                 G
There won't be no more ghetto, ghetto at all

G                          C                 G
No, there won't be no more ghetto, ghetto at all
