[Verse]
G"No home, no home," said a D7little Ggirl
At the D7door of a Crich man's Ghome
She trembling Cstood on the Gmarble steps
And leaned on the D7polished Gwall
Her Gclothes were thin and her D7feet were Gbare
And the D7snowflakes Ccovered her Ghead
"Let me come Cin," she Gfeebly said
"Please give me a D7little Gbread"
As the Glittle girl still D7trembling Gstood
BeD7fore that Crich man's Gdoor
With a frowning Cface he Gscornfully said
"No room, no D7bread for the Gpoor"
Then the Grich man went to his D7table so Gfine
Where D7he and his Cfamily were Gfed
And the orphan Cstood in the Gsnow so deep
As she cried for a D7piece of Gbread
The Grich man slept on his D7velvet Gcouch
And he D7dreamed of his Csilver and Ggold
While the orphan Clay in a Gbed of snow
And murmured, "So D7cold, so Gcold"
The Ghours rolled on through the D7midnight Gstorm
Rolled D7on like a Cfuneral Gbell
The sleet came Cdown in a Gblinding sheet
And the drifting D7snow still Gfell
When Gmorning came the D7little Ggirl
Still D7lay at the Crich man's Gdoor
But her soul had Cfled aGway to its home
Where there's room and D7there's bread for the Gpoor
