G D7 G

"No home, no home," said a little girl

D7 C G

At the door of a rich man's home

C G

She trembling stood on the marble steps

D7 G

And leaned on the polished wall

G D7 G

Her clothes were thin and her feet were bare

D7 C G

And the snowflakes covered her head

C G

"Let me come in," she feebly said

D7 G

"Please give me a little bread"

G D7 G

As the little girl still trembling stood

D7 C G

Before that rich man's door

C G

With a frowning face he scornfully said

D7 G

"No room, no bread for the poor"

G D7 G

Then the rich man went to his table so fine

D7 C G

Where he and his family were fed

C G

And the orphan stood in the snow so deep

D7 G

As she cried for a piece of bread

G D7 G

The rich man slept on his velvet couch

D7 C G

And he dreamed of his silver and gold

C G

While the orphan lay in a bed of snow

D7 G

And murmured, "So cold, so cold"
