[Bbm] [Am] [Eb]
[Am] [A] [Dm]
[C] [Dm]
[C] [Dm]
[C] [D] [Dm]
[A] [Dm] Black eye, black hair, black skin, black queens and majestic with the black king.
Today [Am] I'll sing you a black [F] song you need to hear [G] about beautiful black [Dm] things cause
most [Am] times we hear about black we hear about [D] black magic and black [Dm] witches.
Black place, black book, black market, black Friday, [F] spend time with black [Dm] witches.
I've never [Am] seen a doctor in black, nor seen a black [G] pill, secure, nor black [Dm] people.
But I've seen bush doctors like Lush and Molly, resurrect [Gm] like a real black [Dm] people.
Malcolm, Marcus, Martin, [Bb] when you see [Gm] Walter Rodney, ask [Dm] him.
Oh you not hear about how we laugh then?
So when the little offspring ask him, tell them they [Am] never told [C] us
[G] that black is [Dm] beautiful, they [E] never told [Dm] us.
That black is cute, they [Am] never told [Bb] us.
Oh no, [Dm] that black is beautiful, they [D] never told [Dm] us.
They never [A] told us that black is [E] beautiful.
[Gm] Oh, [Dm] oh.
You a behave on a guan like you never spent 500 years pon a [C] farm.
The same [A] thing you a wear on a [F] guan is another black life in Sierra Leone.
[A] Find out mama earth got [C] golden.
Find [Gm] out mama earth black [Dm] soul then.
Work hard just to get a black plot, see em cut, taste like bite back your black gold then.
See no [A] faces [Gm] long, this is not [D] a racist song.
This is a song for [F] the children who was never told [D] about where the race is from.
[A] They never hear it in [C] their favorite songs.
[Gm] Everybody come and say slavery's done what a guan when the babies [Am] come.
And start read about [D] things like no [Am] guns, black image and [C] coast.
Black [Gm] kings, black senate [C] and books.
We [Am] teach about pyramids and [Bb] foot wheels, significance to we physical [F] looks.
So [Am] every word when we sing [Dm] black, in [Gm] my world everything [Dm] black.
Black, white, white, black, right back.
So don't be [F] surprised if you see me [D] in black.
They [Am] never [Bb] told us [Dm] that black is beautiful, [Am] no, no.
They never told [G] us black [Dm] is beautiful.
They [Am] never told [Bb] us, oh no, [Dm] that black is beautiful, [F] oh no, no.
[Dm] Yeah, they never told us [Am] that black is beautiful.
[A]
[F] [Dm] [A]
[Dm] [Am] They never told us, [Bb] they never, [Dm] [D] oh they never, oh [Dm] they never.
Teacher is teaching [Bb] the things that he teaches.
[Am] I wonder who taught him to teach, [Dm] never did.
[D] I said the preacher [Am] is preaching, [Bb] I wonder where did [F] he get his [D] degree.
Now this [C] is no mystery, [Dm] who taught us that mystery, yeah.
