-1   3  -4  -1    -1   3   -4  -1
The ink is black, the page is white 
-1  3   -3 -4   4   -4  -3   3   -2*
To-geth-er we learn to read and write 
-1  3   -4  -1   -1   3   -4  -1
A child is black, a child is white 
-1   3-3   -4     4   -4 -3  3  -2*2-1
The whole world looks up-on the sight,  
-1 -1  2  -2*   3
a beau-ti-ful sight 
-1  -1 -2* -3   -1  -1  3   -4
And now a child can un-der-stand 
 3    -1  -1 -2* -3  4   6  -5   -3
That this is the law of all the land, 
-5   6  66-5...
all the land 

-1    3   -4  -1    -1    3   -4  -1
The world is black, the world is white 
-1  3 -3 -4  4  -4   -3  3   -2*
It turns by day and then by night 
-1  3   -4  -1   -1   3   -4  -1
A child is black, a child is white 
-1  3   -3  -4   4   -4 -3   3  -2*2-1
To-geth-er they grow to see the light,   
-1 -1 2 -2*   3
to see  the light 
-1  -1 -2*  -3  -1  -1   3  -4
And now at last we plain-ly see 
  3    -1 -2* -3   4   6  -5 -3  -5  6  6
We'll have a dance of Lib-er-ty, Lib-er-ty! 

The world is black, the world is white 
It turns by day and then by night 
A child is black, a child is white 
The whole world looks upon the sight,  
a beautiful sight 

The world is black, the world is white 
It turns by day and then by night 
A child is black, a child is white 
Together they grow to see the light,  
-1 -1 2-2*   3
to see the light
