Black [Em] woman, black woman, like me your [F#m] struggle's long.
[Bm] Your [Em] struggle's like a rough ass [Bm] road with a [F#m] heavy load.
[Em] To be someone you love, [Bm] you're in your [F#m] mind and a half girl.
[Bm] Don't give [Em] up now, you pray for [Bm] freedom, for you are [F#m] dedicated my love.
[Bm] Black [Em] woman, [Bm] black woman, [F#m] like me
[Bm] [Em] your
[Bm] [F#m]
[Bm] struggle's long.
You're the [Em] slave one in the plantation, [Bm] lashes [F#] to a skin.
[F#m] [Bm] [Em] Unlocking locks to the chain and [Bm] code, stand up, [F#m] birth and die.
[Bm] [Em] Harmony of beauty, what we were [Bm] refused, was thrown in the [F#m] garbage bin.
[Bm] But no need for [E] that now, free [Em] yourself now [Bm] and let me [F#m] sing my song.
[Bm] La-da [Em]-da -da-da-da [Bm]-da-daaahhhh

[Bm] Where you're [Em] fighting, stand up for the [Bm] right thing
and not that [F#m] which is wrong.
[Bm] I heard [Em] Rachel's mourning for her [Bm] children, when Aaron and Sarah [F#m] took their little heads.
[Bm] But like [Em] Mary and like [Bm] Joseph, the father of [F#m] roses too.
[Bm] Oh, we came [Em] as eagles in flight [Bm] there, but I dedicate my [A] song for you.
[Bm] La, da, [Em]
[Bm] da, da, da, [F#m] da, da.
[Bm] [Em] Whoo, hoo, hoo, hoo.
[Bm] [F#m]
[Bm] [E] Mama, [Em] mama.
[Bm] No use brother, [F#m] no.
[Bm] I'll save [Em] you a place,

Whoo, [F#m] hoo, hoo, hoo.
