Intro: F A# A# A# F A# A# A# F x4

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

F A# A# A# F A# A# A# F x2

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

F A# A# A# F A# A# A# F x4

F
Iʼm tired of this devil, Iʼm tired of this stuff,
                                       A#          F
Iʼm tired of this business, so when the going gets rough.
F
I ainʼt scared of your brother, I ainʼt scared of no sheets,
                                       A#          F
I ainʼt scared of nobody, girl when the goinʼ gets mean.

 F
Protection for gangs, clubs, and nations,
 F
causing grief in human relations.
 F
Itʼs a turf war on a global scale,
 F
Iʼd rather hear both sides of the tale.
 F
See, itʼs not about races, just places, faces.
 F
Where your blood comes from is where your space is.
 F
Iʼve seen the bright get duller,
 F
Iʼm not going to spend my life being a color.

       A#
Donʼt tell me you agree with me,
                              F A# A# A# F A# A# A# F
when I saw you kicking dirt in my eye.
                 C
But, if youʼre thinkinʼ about my baby,
          A#                   F A# A# A# F A# A# A# F
it donʼt matter if youʼre black or white.
                    C
I said, if youʼre thinkinʼ about my baby,
          A#                    F A# A# A# F A# A#  A# F
it donʼt matter if youʼre black or white.
                    C
I said, if youʼre thinkinʼ of being my brother,
          A#                   F A# A# A# F A# A# A# F
it donʼt matter if youʼre black or white.
