The Cranberries were an alternative rock band from Limerick, Ireland that formed in 1989 and rose to mainstream popularity in the early 1990's. The band consisted of Noel Hogan (guitar/vocals; also a member of Mono Band), Mike Hogan (bass/vocals), and Fergal Lawler (drums/percussion; also a member of The Low Network). Dolores O'Riordan (vocals, keyboards, guitars) was a member from 1990 until her death in 2018. The band went on hiatus in 2003 and reunited in the summer of 2009.

G# As the snow flies Cm On a cold and grey Chicago morning C#D# A poor little baby child is born G# In the ghetto
G# And his mama cries Cm 'Cause if there's one thing that she don't need C#D# It's another hungry mouth to feed G# In the ghetto
D# So people won't you understand C#G# The child needs a helping hand C#D#G# Or he'll grow to be an angry young man some day D# Take a look at you and me C#G# Are we too blind to see C#CmA#mD# Do we simply turn our heads and look the other way
G# Well the world turns Cm And a poor little boy with a runny nose C#D# Plays in the street where the cold wind blows G# In the ghetto
G# And his hunger burns Cm So he starts to roam the streets at night C#D# And he learns how to steal and he learns how to fight G# In the ghetto
D# Then one night in desperation C#G# A young man breaks away C#G# He finds a gun, and he steals a car C#D# And he tries to run, but he doesn't get far
G# And his mama cries Cm As a crowd gathers 'round an angry young man C#D# Face down on the street with a gun in his hand G# In the ghetto
G# And as her young man dies Cm On a cold and grey Chicago morning C#D# Another little baby child is born G# In the ghetto G# In the ghetto G# In the ghetto.
