 Intro (E) (A) (B7) (E) – Follow pattern of first two lines in chorus

 (E) As I was slowly passing an (A) orphan's home one day,
 I (B7) thought I'd stop a little while just to watch the children (E) play
 Alone a boy was standing and (A) when I asked him why
 He (B7) turned with eyes that could not see and he began to (E) cry
 
Chorus
 I'm nobody's child, I'm (A) nobody's child
 (B7) I'm like a flower, just growing (E) wild
 No mommy's kisses and (A) no daddy's smiles
 (B7) Nobody wants me, I'm nobody's (E) child
 
Instrumental break 1 – Follow pattern of chorus

 (E) People come for children and (A) take them for their own
 But (B7) they all seem to pass me by and why I'll never (E) know
 I know they want to take me, but (A) when they see I'm blind
 They (B7) always pick some other child and I am left (E) behind
 
Repeat Chorus 

Instrumental break 2 – Follow pattern of chorus

(E) No mommy's arms to hold me or (A) soothe me when I cry
 Some (B7) times I feel so lonely, I wish that I could (E) die
 I'd walk the streets of heaven where (A) all blind children see
 Then (B7) I'd be like other kids, there'd be a place for (E) me
               
Repeat Chorus and slow down last line and end song
