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 segregating
Cm7
I'm talking 'bout brown and yellow two.
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 colour the same as me.
Gm7 Cm7 Gm7 Cm9
Pardon me, brother, as you stand in your glory,
Gm7 Cm7 Gm7 Cm9
I know you won't mind if I tell the whole story.

(drums and bass)
Gm7
Get yourself together, learn to know your side.
Shall we commit our own genocide before you check out your mind?
I know we've all got problems, that's why I'm here to say,
Keep peace with me and I with you, let me love in my own way.

Gm7
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.

We're just good for nothing they all figure,

Now we can't hardly stand for that,

Pardon me, brother, while you stand in your glory,
Gm7 Cm7 Gm7 Cm9
I know you won't mind if I tell the whole story.
Gm7 Cm7 Gm7 Cm9
Pardon me, brother, I know we've come a long, long way,

But let us not be satisfied for tomorrow can be an,
Cm7
An even brighter day.
