[Verse 1]
C Em/B Am7
It's knowin' that your door is always open
C/G Dm
And your path is free to walk
Dm C#aug Dm7/C
That makes me tend to keep my sleeping bag rolled up
G C
And stashed behind your couch
C Em/B
And it's knowin' I'm not shackled
Am7 C/G
By forgotten words and bonds
C Dm
And the ink stains that have dried upon some line
Dm C#aug
That keeps you in the back roads
Dm7/C G
By the rivers of my memory
Dm G C
That keeps you ever gentle on my mind
[Verse 2]
C Em/B
It's not clingin' to the rocks and ivy
Am7 C/G Dm
Planted on their columns now that bind me
Dm C#aug Dm7/C
Or something that somebody said because
G C
They thought we fit together walkin'
C Em/B
It's just knowing that the world
Am7 C/G
Will not be cursing or forgiving
C Dm
When I walk along some railroad track and find
Dm C#aug
That you're movin' on the back roads
Dm7/C G
By the rivers of my memory
Dm G C
And for hours you're just gentle on my mind
[Verse 3]
C Em/B
Though the wheat fields and the clothes lines
Am7 C/G Dm
And the junkyards and the highways come between us
Dm C#aug Dm7/C
And some other woman's cryin' to her mother
G C
'Cause she turned and I was gone
C Em/B
I still might run in silence
Am7 C/G
Tears of joy might stain my face
C Dm
And the summer sun might burn me till I'm blind
Dm C#aug
But not to where I cannot see
Dm7/C G
You walkin' on the back roads
Dm G C
By the rivers flowin' gentle on my mind
[Verse 4]
C Em/B
I dip my cup of soup back
Am7 C/G Dm
From a gurglin' cracklin' cauldron in some train yard
Dm C#aug
My beard a rustlin' coal pile
Dm7/C G C
And a dirty hat pulled low across my face
C Em/B
Through cupped hands 'round a tin can
Am7 C/G Dm
I pretend to hold you to my breast and find
Dm C#aug
That you're waitin' from the back roads
Dm7/C G
By the rivers of my memory
Dm G C
Ever smilin', ever gentle on my mind

[Intro]
| G C/G | G C/G G |
[Verse 1]
| G C/G | G C/G G |
As the snow flies
Bm
On a cold and gray Chicago mornin'
C D
A poor little baby child is born
| G C/G | G C/G G |
In the ghetto
[Verse]
| G C/G | G C/G G |
And his mama cries
Bm
Cause if there’s one thing that she don’t need
C D
It’s another hungry mouth to feed
| G C/G | G C/G G |
In the ghetto
[Middle 8]
D
People, don’t you understand
C G
The child needs a helping hand
C D G
Or he’ll grow to be an angry young man some day
D [ Dsus4 D ]
Now, take a look at you and me,
C G
Are we too blind to see,
C Bm
Do we simply turn our heads
Am7 D
And look the other way
[Verse]
| G C/G | G C/G G |
Well the world turns
Bm
And a hungry little boy with a runny nose
C D
Plays in the street as the cold wind blows
| G C/G | G C/G G |
In the ghetto
[Verse]
| G C/G | G C/G G |
And his hunger burns
Bm
So, he starts to roam the streets at night
C D
And he learns how to steal and he learns how to fight
| G C/G | G C/G G |
In the ghetto
[Middle 8] variation
D
Then one night in desperation
C G
The young man breaks away
C Bm
He buys a gun, steals a car,
Am D
Tries to run, but he don’t get far
[Verse]
| G C/G | G C/G G |
His mama cries
Bm
As a crowd gathers round an angry young man
C D
Face down on the street with a gun in his hand
| G C/G | G C/G G |
In the ghetto (In the ghetto)
[Verse]
| G C/G | G C/G G |
As her young man dies (In the ghetto)
Bm
On a cold and gray Chicago mornin',
C D
Another little baby child is born ...
| G C/G | G C/G G |
In the ghetto (In the ghetto)
[Outro]
| G C/G | G C/G G |
And his mama cries (In the ghetto)
| G C/G | G C/G G |
(In the ghetto)
| G C/G | G C/G G |
(Aah, aaah)
| G C/G | G C/G G |
(fade out)
