Song:

Come to  my door, ba-by,
-5*  -5* -5 -5 5  5  5
Face is clean and
-5*  -5  -5*  -5
Shin-ing black as night.
-5*  -5   -5    5  5
My moth-er went to an-swer you know
-5* -5* -5 -5*  -5 -5  5    5   5
That you looked so  fine.
5    -5   -5*   -5 -3*4-3*
Now I could un-der-stand
-6  -6 -6   -6  -6  -6
your tears and your shame,
-5    -6   -6   -5   -6
She called you boy
-6*  -6*    6  -6*
In-stead of your name.
-5* -6*  6  -6*   -5
When she would-n't let you in-side,
7     7    7   -7* -7* -7  -7*  7
When she turned and said
-7*   7   -7*    7   -7*
"But hon-ey, he's not our kind."
7    -7* 7   -7*  -7  7-6  -6
She  says I can't see you
-7    -7 8  8     8   -7
An-y more, ba- by
8 -8  -7   -8 -7-8
Can't see you an-y-more.
8      8  -8  8 -8  -7

Walk me down to school, baby,
Everybody's acting deaf and dumb.
Until they turn and say,
"Why don't you stick to your own kind."
My teachers all laugh, the smirking stares,
Cutting deep down in our affairs.
Preachers of equality,
Think they believe it, then
why won't they just let us be?
They say I can't see you anymore baby,
Can't see you anymore.

One of these days I'm gonna
stop my listening
Gonna raise my head up high.
One of these days I'm gonna
raise up my glistening wings and fly.
But that day will have to wait for a while.
Baby I'm only society's child.
When we're older things may change,
But for now this is the way, they must remain.
I say I can't see you anymore baby,
Can't see you anymore.

No, I don't want-na see you an- y-more, ba-by
-7 -7* -7   -7*  -7 -7* -7  -7* -7 7    -7 7
