Run And Tell That Chords by Elijah Kelley, Motion Picture Cast Of Hairspray

_ Wow, being invited places by colored people, it feels [A] so good!
I'm glad y'all feel that way, because _ [Am] not many people do.
[E] Y'all know what I'm saying?
Yeah, that's [A] right.
Hey!
_ _ [G] _
_ [A] _ I [D] can't see why [A] people look at me and only see the color [D] of my face.
Oh [A] yeah.
And [D] there's those [E] who try to [D] help, but no, [A] always have [D] to put me in my [G] _
place.
[B] But I won't ask you to be colorblind, [D] because if you pick up truth, you know you [Gb]
should find
_ [A] that black [D] is a berry [Em] sweeter [D] than juice.
[A] I can say [D] it ain't so, but [A] darlin', what's the use?
The darker [D] the chocolate, [Em] the richer [D] the taste.
And that's [Em] where it's _ at.
But baby, what [A] can you tell?
[D] What [Am] can you tell?
[D] What [A] can you tell?
_ [D] What can you [E] tell? _
Hey, [Bb] yeah!
I can't see why people _ disagree.
Sound about telling what I know is true.
Pardon.
_ You can't see the world I'm from.
I bet your heart is gonna [Eb] fill it too.
Yeah, [C] I could lie, but baby, let's be [Eb] bold.
Vanilla can be not good enough [Bbm] to be told.
Black [Eb] is a berry [Bb] sweeter [Eb] than juice.
[Bb] I can say it ain't so, [Bbm] but darlin', what's the use?
The darker [Eb] the chocolate, [Bbm] the richer [Eb] the taste.
And that's [F] where it's at.
Oh, baby, what [Bb] can you tell?
What can you tell?
[Eb] What can [Bb] you tell?

It's good for you, girl.
