_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ [F] What's the next order [Gb] on the agenda?
Well, we're going to present [B] an extremely talented and [Db] very amazing young lady named Janice Ian.
Now she's going to sing her own composition.

[B] _ _ [C] _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
[Cm] _ Come to my [F] door, baby.
[Cm] _ Face is clean and [F] shining black as night.
[Cm] My mother went [F] to answer, you know, that [Cm] you look so _ [C] fine. _ _
[Bb] Now I could understand your tears and your [D] shame.
She called you boy instead of your [Gm]
name.
When she wouldn't let you inside.
[Eb] When she turned and said, but honey, [F] is my out [G] kind.
_ _ She [Am] says I can't see you [D] anymore, _ [G] baby.
_ [Am] _ Can't see you [D] anymore.
_ _ _ [C] _ Walk me down [F] to school, _ [Cm] baby. _ _
[F] Everybody's acting deaf and [Cm] blind.
Until they turn [F] and say, why don't you just stick to [Cm] your own kind?
_ [F] _ _ [Bb] My teachers all laugh, they're smirking, [D] stares.
_ Cutting deep down in our affairs.
[Gm] _ _ Preachers of _ equality.
_ [Eb] Think they believe it, then why may they [F] just let us [G] be?
_ [F] _ They [Am] say I can't see you anymore, _ _ [G] baby.
[Am]
Can't see you [D] anymore. _ _ _
[C] One of these days I'm [F] gonna stop my listening, [Cm] gonna raise my head [F] up high. _
[Cm] One of these days I'm [F] gonna raise my [Cm] glistening wings and fly.
[F] _ _ _ _
[Bb] But that day will have to wait for a [Cm] while.
[D] Baby, I'm only _ Society's [Gm] Child.
When we're old, the things may [Bb] [Eb] change, but the mind. _ _ _
_ [F] _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
I [Am] say I can't see you _ [D]
anymore, [G] baby.
_ [Am] _ Can't see you [D] anymore.
_ _ _ [Gm] _ I can't see you [F] anymore, baby.
