Chords for Josette from MUNA Calls Her Dad

I'm Naomi.
I'm Josette.
I'm Katie.
And we're Muna.
I [Eb] know.
_ _ _ _ I speak the [Bb] language _ best.
_ And we're going to be calling my dad.
_ _ _ _ _ [B] _
_ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
What if he doesn't answer?
[Bb] I don't know. _ _ _
_ Hello.
Hi.
_ Hi.
Hi, Jonathan.
How are you?
_ _ How's your hand?
I heard you got a bite.
I already told you.
It's a little bit swollen.
_ _ _ Heartaches, but, uh.
Oh my god.
It's going to be fine.
Aw.
Not going to have to amputate it.
It's not funny, Josette.
_ My hand gets amputated.
You know, that was Naomi.
Thank you.
What do you do that?
_ Yeah, the hand gets amputated on the breadwinner.
A lot different.
_ _ [Gb] Yeah, for you, not for us.
Yeah, right.
Are you ready for your close up?
I spent the whole. _
_ What have you been, what did you prepare?
[Gb] _
I just [Bb] thought about some memories that I [Abm] had of growing up in South Africa.
And [Bb] music is an instrument of social change.
Oh, wow.
That's very beautiful.
How did it change you?
When I was growing up in South Africa, in the late 70s, there was a series of riots.
At first it was small.
And then, you know, a bunch of 10, 11, 12, 13 year olds [Eb] took to the streets.
And the government shot them.
Wow, Jesus.
And so, _ [Ab]
it coincided with the time [B] that album The War was released.
You remember that song, We Don't Need No Education, We Don't Need No Thought Control?
Uh-huh.
And that became the anthem [G]
of the Black Kids.
That's amazing.
I didn't know that.
And so, the [Ab] government banned the album.
Wow, that's crazy.
They banned the album, they took the album off [B] the radio.
Wow.
And it made me realize what an instrument of social change music could be.
So, when I think about the fact that I have a daughter _ who's part of a band,
who is trying to be part of social change, of social justice, and I look on Muna,
I believe all human life is significant.
_ _ [E] You know?
Jonathan quotes, he quotes Katie.
The quote master.
I love it when you quote me.
Oh, it's a great line.
It's a wonderful line.
I believe even though our gods and our skins are different, it's true.
I mean, you're not just [Ab] standing up for LGBT, you're standing up for Blacks,
you're standing up for Latinos, you're standing up for people to embrace differences.
We all need a place to dance.
I think we thought this was going to be a funny call a little bit, but no.
As a 60-year-old man, it makes me proud, it makes me think that maybe I did something right.
Oh, this was not supposed to happen like this.
I knew this was going to happen.
The [Gb] other thing I want to say, Katie.
Uh-oh.
Time for Katie to cry.
My dear, you have real, [Ab] real courage.
I'm [B] proud my daughter hangs out with you.
[Bm] I'm just fucked up.
I throw my arms open wide in resistance.
I'm not sure I would have the courage to say that.
God bless you.
God bless you, Jonathan.
Damn, you made all of us [N] cry a little bit.
I could say especially Josette, but that's not surprising.
I look forward to when you guys are back in town and we're having dinner.
Thank you for this honor. _
Love you, Jonathan.
Thank you for talking.
We'll see you when we're back. Bye, Daddy.
Bye.
See you.
_ _ I loved that, actually.
I loved that.
That was sweet.
Very nice.
I should have known, dude.
I should have known. _
