(Verse)
GD7G
"No home, no home," said a little girl
D7CG
At the door of a rich man's home
CG
She trembling stood on the marble steps
D7G
And leaned on the polished wall
GD7G
Her clothes were thin and her feet were bare
D7CG
And the snowflakes covered her head
CG
"Let me come in," she feebly said
D7G
"Please give me a little bread"
GD7G
As the little girl still trembling stood
D7CG
Before that rich man's door
CG
With a frowning face he scornfully said
D7G
"No room, no bread for the poor"
GD7G
Then the rich man went to his table so fine
D7CG
Where he and his family were fed
CG
And the orphan stood in the snow so deep
D7G
As she cried for a piece of bread
GD7G
The rich man slept on his velvet couch
D7CG
And he dreamed of his silver and gold
CG
While the orphan lay in a bed of snow
D7G
And murmured, "So cold, so cold"
GD7G
The hours rolled on through the midnight storm
D7CG
Rolled on like a funeral bell
CG
The sleet came down in a blinding sheet
D7G
And the drifting snow still fell
GD7G
When morning came the little girl
D7CG
Still lay at the rich man's door
CG
But her soul had fled away to its home
D7G
Where there's room and there's bread for the poor
