Intro
Gm7 Cm7 (x4)
[Verse 1]
Gm7 Cm7
We people who are darker than blue
Gm7
Are we gonna stand around this town
Cm7
And let what others say come true?
Gm7 Dm7
We're just good for nothing they all figure
Cm7
D# boyish, grown up, shiftless jigger
Gm7 Dm7
Now we can't hardly stand for that
Cm7
Or is that really where it's at?
Gm7 Cm7
We people who are darker than blue
Gm7
This ain't no time for segregatin'
Cm7
I'm talkin' 'bout brown and yellow too
Gm7 Dm7
High yellow girl, can't you tell
Cm7
You're just the surface of our dark deep well
Gm7 Dm7
If your mind could really see
Cm7
You'd know your color; same as me
Gm7 Cm7 Gm7 Cm7
Pardon me, brother, as you stand in your glory
Gm7 Cm7 Gm7 Cm7
I know you won't mind if I tell the whole story
[Instrumental]

Gm7 Cm7 Dm7 (x16)
Gm7 Cm7 Dm7
Get yourself together
Gm7 Cm7 Dm7
Learn to know your side
Gm7 Cm7 Dm7
Shall we commit our own genocide
Gm7 Cm7 Dm7
Before you check out your mind?
Gm7 Cm7 Dm7
I know we've all got problems
Gm7 Cm7 Dm7
That's why I'm here to say
Gm7 Cm7 Dm7
Keep peace with me and I with you
Gm7 Cm7 Dm7
Let me love in my own way
Gm7 Cm7 Dm7 (x10)

[Verse 2]
Gm7 Cm7
Now I know we have great respect
Gm7 Cm7
For the sister and mother, it's even better yet
Gm7 Dm7
But there's the joker in the street
Cm7
Loving one brother and killing the other
Gm7 Dm7
When the time comes and we are really free
Cm7
There'll be no brothers left, you see
Gm7 Cm7
We people who are darker than blue
Gm7
Don't let us hang around this town
Cm7
And let what others say come true
Gm7 Dm7
We're just good for nothing they all figure
Cm7
D# boyish, grown up, shiftless jiggerr
Gm7 Dm7
Now we can't hardly stand for that
Cm7
Or is that really where it's at?
Gm7 Cm7 Gm7 Cm7
Pardon me, brother, while you stand in your glory
Gm7 Cm7 Gm7 Cm7
I know you won't mind if I tell the whole story
Gm7 Cm7 Gm7 Cm7
Pardon me, brother, I know we've come a long, long way
Gm7 Cm7 Gm7 Cm7
But let us not be so satisfied for tomorrow can be an even brighter day
