WHY WOULD SUCH A SIMPLE CHILD
Am7        D        G    D/G  C/G
COME TO SUCH A PLACE
(Verse 3)
WE TALKED UNTIL THE WIND DIED DOWN
THE BABY WOKE AND STIRRED
SHE MADE A LITTLE HUSHING SOUND
SPOKE SOME MAGIC WORD
THE BABY YAWNED AND SMILED AT ME
AS SHE SAID WE CAN'T STAY
SHE THANKED ME FOR MY KINDNESS
TURNED AND WALKED AWAY
REPEAT CHORUS
(Verse 4)
I THINK ABOUT THEM ALL THE TIME
I HOPE THEY'VE FOUND A HOME
IT SEEMS THAT IT'S MY CALLING NOW
TO WALK THESE STREETS ALONE
SOMETIMES WHEN THE WIND IS RIGHT
I CAN SMELL HER SWEET PERFUME
AND THINK ABOUT THE WARM EMBRACE
THAT ENDED ALL TOO SOON
REPEAT CHORUS
