Introduction:

 C                                 G7 
Out on the corner standin' so bold
                                                                               C 
Stood a little paper boy so hungry and cold
                                             G7 
And as the crowd came passin' by
                                                                             C 
These words he said with tears in his eyes
                             G7 
"Please buy a paper from me
                                                           C 
So I can get me somethin' to eat
                                                     G7 
My clothes are ragged, no shoes on my feet"
                                                                                 C 
Said the little paper boy, there on the street
                                               G7 
"Out in this cold wide world all alone
                                                                             C 
I have no place on this earth to call home
                                                             G7 
I haven't had the chance that other kids had
                                                           C 
I have no mother, nor even a dad
                                 G7 
So please buy a paper from me
                                                           C 
So I can get me somethin' to eat
                                                     G7 
My clothes are ragged, no shoes on my feet "
                                                                                 C 
Said the little paper boy, there on the street
                                                     G7 
Early next mornin' as the crowd passed by
                                                                                     C 
The little boy was gone and they wondered why
                                                       G7 
They started searchin' and then found him dead
                                                                     C 
He died with the papers under his head
                                           G7 
No one was there his body to claim
                                                                     C 
There he was lying but he felt no pain
                                             G7 
Now he has gone up to Heaven we know
                                                                           C 
The little paper boy who died in the snow
