G7       C       Gdim          C       Gdim 
Them that's got shall get, them that's not shall lose 
    Gm7    C9         Gm7        C9 
So the Bible said, and it still is news 
F  Fdim     Fm    Fdim 
Mama may  have, papa may have 
  Em7         Gdim        Dm7      G7           
But God bless the child that's got his own 
G7/13-         C    Am7 Dm7 G7 
That's got his own. 
G7      C        Gdim         C      Gdim 
Yes, the strong gets more, while the weak ones fade 
   Gm7     C9       Gm7     C9 
Empty pockets don't ever make the grade 
F   Fdim    Fm    Fdim 
Mama may  have, papa may have, 
    Em7            Gdim         Dm7    G7           
But God bless the child that's got his own  
G7/13-         C    C5-/7 F7 E7 
That's got his own. 
Bridge 
Am7    Am7+    Am7   Am6     Em         Em7+       Em7   Em6 
Money, you got lots o' friends crowdin' round the door 
Am7      Am7+       Am7     Am6 
When you're gone, and spending ends,  
Em     Edim    G#7   G7 
They don't come no more. 
G7     C     Gdim       C        Gdim 
Rich relations give crust of bread and such 
    Gm7      C9          Gm7      C9 
You can help yourself, but don't take too much. 
F    Fdim    Fm   Fdim 
Mama may  have, papa may have, 
  Em7         Gdim        Dm7      G7             
But God bless the child that's got his own  
G7/13-          C 
That's got his own.
