Intro: D#G#G#G#D#G#G#G#D# x4
D#
I took my baby on a Saturday bang,
D#
Boy is that girl with you?
D#
Yes, weʼre one and the same.
G#
Now I believe in miracles,
D#G#G#G#D#G#G#G#D#
and a miracle has happened tonight.
A#
But, if youʼre thinkinʼ about my baby,
G#
it donʼt matter if youʼre black or white.

D#
They print my message in the Saturday Sun,
D#
I had to tell them, I ainʼt second to none.
G#
And I told about equality,
D#G#G#G#D#G#G#G#D#
and itʼs true, either youʼre wrong or youʼre right.
A#
But, if youʼre thinkinʼ about my baby,
G#
it donʼt matter if youʼre black or white.

D#
Iʼm tired of this devil, Iʼm tired of this stuff,
G#D#
Iʼm tired of this business, so when the going gets rough.
D#
I ainʼt scared of your brother, I ainʼt scared of no sheets,
G#D#
I ainʼt scared of nobody, girl when the goinʼ gets mean.
D#
Protection for gangs, clubs, and nations,
D#
causing grief in human relations.
D#
Itʼs a turf war on a global scale,
D#
Iʼd rather hear both sides of the tale.
D#
See, itʼs not about races, just places, faces.
D#
Where your blood comes from is where your space is.
D#
Iʼve seen the bright get duller,
D#
Iʼm not going to spend my life being a color.
G#
Donʼt tell me you agree with me,
D#G#G#G#D#G#G#G#D#
when I saw you kicking dirt in my eye.
A#
But, if youʼre thinkinʼ about my baby,
G#D#G#G#G#D#G#G#G#D#
it donʼt matter if youʼre black or white.
A#
I said, if youʼre thinkinʼ about my baby,
G#D#G#G#G#D#G#G#G#D#
it donʼt matter if youʼre black or white.
A#
I said, if youʼre thinkinʼ of being my brother,
G#D#G#G#G#D#G#G#G#D#
it donʼt matter if youʼre black or white.
