🎶 Black And White

[D]I took my baby on a [Bbm]Saturday bang
[D]Boy is that girl with you? Yes we're [Bbm]one and the [D]same
Now [Bbm]I believe in miracles and a miracle has happened to[D]night
But, [G#]if you're thinkin' about my baby
It don't [Bbm]matter if you're black or [D]white

[D]They print my message in the [Bbm]Saturday Sun
[D]I had to tell them I ain't [Bbm]second to [D]none
And I [Bbm]told about equality and it's true
Either you're wrong or you're [D]right
But, [G#]if you're thinkin' about my baby
It don't [Bbm]matter if you're black or [D]white

[D]I am tired of this devil I am tired of this stuff
[D]I am tired of this business Sew when the going gets rough
[D]I ain't scared of your brother I ain't scared of no sheets
[D]I ain't scared of nobody Girl, when the going gets mean

[D]Protection for gangs, clubs, and nations
[D]Causing grief in human relations It's a turf war on a global scale
[D]I'd rather hear both sides of the tale
See, [D]it's not about races Just places, faces where your blood comes from
Is were your [D]space is I've seen the bright get duller
I'm [D]not going to spend my life being a color

Don't [Bbm]tell me you agree with me
When I saw you kicking dirt in my [D]eye [Bbm] [D]
But, if you're [G#]thinkin' about my baby
It don't [D]matter if you're black or [D]white
I said if you're [G#]thinkin' about my baby
It don't [D]matter if you're black or [D]white
I said if you're [G#]thinkin' about my baby
It don't [D]matter if you're black or [D]white

It's [D]black, it's white
It's [Bbm]tough for you to get by (yeah, yeah, yeah)
It's [D]black, it's [Bbm]white
It's [D]black, it's white
It's [Bbm]tough for you to get by (yeah, yeah, yeah)
It's [D]black, it's [Bbm]white⠀⠀
