Nobodys Child chords - Hank Snow ♬ How to Play

Nobodys Child chords

Someone asked for an old Hank Snow song, "Nobody's Child."
 Although Hank recorded it, the original was Harry Hibbs. Here it is.
 
 Nobody's Child
 
 As [D] I was slowly passing [D7] by an [G] orphan's home one day,
 I [A7] thought I'd stop a little while just to watch the children [D] play.
 Alone, a boy was [D7] standing, and [G] when I asked him why,
 He [A7] turned with eyes that could not see and this was his re-[D] ply.
 
 Chorus>>>
 
 I'm [G] nobody's child, [A7] nobody's [D] child.
 [A7] I'm like a flower, just growing [D] wild.
 No mommy's [D7] kisses and no [G] daddy's smiles,
 Nobody [A7] wants me, I'm nobody's [D] child.
 
 People come for children to take them for their own,
 But they seem to pass me by and why I never know.
 I know they want to take me, but when they see I'm Blind,
 They always pick some other child and I am left behind.
 
 Repeat Chorus>>>

 No mommy's arms to hold me and soothe me when I cry,
 Sometimes I feel so lonely, I wish that I could die.
 I'll walk the street of heaven where all the blind can see,
 Then I'll be like other kids, There'll be a place for me.
 
 Repeat Chorus>>>
