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 G G G D G G G D x2

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 G G G D G G G D x4

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.
