             C#mThe world is cruel
             AThe world is wicked
        C#m                                   DIt's I alone whom you can trust in this whole city
          G#sus G#   A#m7(no5)   G#/B#  I am your only friend

C#m                                  AI who keep you, teach you, feed you, dress you
C#m                         G#mI who look upon you without fear
F#m                           G#m             Amaj7How can I protect you, boy, unless you always stay in here
 E/G    G#  Away in here

F#m/G#   C#m/G#   G#7[spoken]Remember what I taught you, Quasimodo


          C#mYou are deformed
[I am deformed]
            AAnd you are ugly
[And I am ugly]
              C#mAnd these are crimes
For which the world
             DShows little pity
           G#sus G#  You do not comprehend
            A#m7b5 G#/B#  [You are my one defender]

C#m       B         A  Out there they'll revile you
     B/A  A  As a monster
[I am a monster]
C#m       B         A  Out there they will hate
              G#mAnd scorn and jeer
[Only a monster]
F#m7Why invite their calumny
    G#mAnd consternation?
Amaj7Stay in here
   G#mBe faithful to me
[I'm faithful]
A        F#m  G#   Grateful to me
[I'm grateful]

C#mDo as I say
 F#m/C#  Obey
         C#m/G#  And/I'll stay
G# C#mIn here
