Version 1 Version 2CAPO 4 [Verse] C Fmaj7 I was slowly passing an orphan's home one day C D7 G G7 And stopped there for a moment just to watch the children play C Fmaj7 Alone, a boy was standing and when I asked him why C F G C He turned with eyes that could not see and he began to cry [CHORUS] C C7 F I'm nobody's child, I'm nobody's child G C I'm like a flower just growing wild C C7 F No mommy's kisses and no daddy's smile G G7 C Nobody wants me I'm nobody's child [Verse] C Fmaj7 People come for children and take them for their own C D7 G G7 But they all seem to pass me by and I am left alone C Fmaj7 I know they'd like to take me but when they see I'm blind C F G C They always take some other child and I am left behind C Fmaj7 No mother's arms to hold me or soothe me when I cry C D7 G G7 Sometimes it gets so lonely here I wish that I could die C Fmaj7 I'd walk the streets of heaven where all the blind can see C F G C And just like all the other kids there'd be a home for me [Spoken] C Fmaj7 I just can't seem to figure out Why the folks all pass me by G Cause I know that it's true that god takes Little blind C children with him in the sky C Fmaj7 And they tell me that I'm oh so pretty And they seem to like my big curls of gold G But then they take some other little child And I'm left C here all alone [CHORUS] C C7 F I'm nobody's child, I'm nobody's child G C I'm like a flower just growing wild C C7 F No mommy's kisses and no daddy's smile G G7 C Nobody wants me I'm nobody's child.
