[E] [A] [E] [A]
[E] [A] [E] [A]
[E] [F#m] [E] [A]
[E] [A] [E] [A] I sent my [E] baby on a Saturday night.
I [A] had a good [E] time with you, you never did say.
[A] I'm alive with little miracles, and I'm never [E] going to stop them tonight.
[A]
[E] [F#m] [E] But if I don't get [B] a feeling from my baby, [A] it don't matter if I'm black [E] or [A] white.
[E] [F#m] [E] [A]
[E] [F#m] [E] [A] I'm sending my [E] message [F#m] in the Saturday [E] sun.
I [A] sat [E] down on [A] my instant [E] green hunt, [A] and I told her [G#m] about equality,
[A] and it's true [E] either you're wrong or you're [A] right.
[E] [F#m] [E] But if I don't get [B] a feeling from my baby, [A] it don't matter if you're black [E] or white.
[A]
[E] [A] [E] [A]
[E] [F#m] [E] Nobody matters [A]
[E] [F#m] [E] to me.
[A]
[E] [A] [E] But if I don't get a feeling from my baby, it don't matter if I'm [Am] black [E]
[Em] or white.
It's all in me.
Protection [A] for gang-sclubbing nations, causing grief in human relations.
It's a turf war on a global scale.
I'd rather hear it both sides of the table.
See, it's not about races, it's places, faces.
Where your blood comes from is where your face is.
I've seen the bright side of color.
I'm not [A#] going to spend my life being [A] a color.
You never used me with me when I saw [E] you getting dirt in my [A] [E] eyes.
[A] [E]
I [B] sent a message in the Saturday sun.
But if I don't get a feeling from my baby, it [A] don't matter if you're black [E] or white.
[A] [E] [F#m] [E] Nobody matters to me.
[B] But if I don't get a feeling from my baby, it [A] don't matter if I'm black [E] or white.
[A] [E] [F#m] [E] It's [B] [A] all
[E] [A] [E] [A] [E]
[A] [E] [A] [E]
[F#m] [E] [A] in [E] me.
Yeah, [A] that's right now, [E] I know why.
[A] Alright, [E]
rrrr-rrr-rrah, [A] [E] jungle, [A] dump.
[E] Yeah, yeah, [A] yeah now, [E] [A] all right.
[E]
Ah, your back, [A] [C#m] it's fighting.
[A] Stuck, [E] your back, [A] it's [E] fighting.
[F#m] Woo!
Ah, [E]
your back, [A] [E] it's fighting.
[F#m] Stuck, [E] your back, [A] it's [E] fighting.
Woo!
