We [A] people [Dm] who [A] are darker than blue
Don't [Am] let us hang around this town
And [Dm] let what others say [Am] come true
We're just good for [Em] nothing, they all [Dm] figure
A boyish grown-up, shiftless [Em] jizzer
[Am]
[Em] Now we can hardly [Dm] stand for that
Or is that really where [A] it's at?
[Am] [A]
We people [Dm] who are darker [B] than blue
We've [Am] got no time for segregating
[Em] I'm [Dm] talking about brown and yellow too
I, [Am] a white girl, [Em] can't you [Dm] tell?
I'm just [Am] the surface of our [E] dark, deep [Am] well
If your [Em] mind could really [A] see
You'd know your color, [Dm] same as me
[A] [Am] Pardon me, [Em] brother, as you stand [Dm] in your glory
[Am] I know you won't [Dm] mind if I tell the whole story
[Am] Oh, [Dm] oh, oh, [Am] oh, oh, oh, [Dm]
[Am] oh
Now I [Dm] know we [A] have great respect
[Am] For the sister [A] and the mother
It's even [Am] better yet
But [E] there's the [B] joker in the street
[A] Loving one brother and killing the other
[Am]
When the time [Em] comes and we are really [A] free
There'll be no brothers left to see
[Am]
We [G] people [Dm] who are [A] darker than blue
[C] Don't let [Am] us hang around this town
[Dm] And let what others say come true
[Am] We're just good for [Em] nothing, they all [A] figure
Boyish grown-up, shiftless
