Michael Jackson - Black Or White Akor

I took my baby on a Saturday bang,

"Boy is that girl with you?"

Yes, we're one and the same.

A

Now I believe in miracles and a miracle

E5

has happened tonight, oh.

B

But, if you're thinkin' about my baby,

A E5

it don't matter if you're black or white.

They print my message in the saturday sun,

I had to tell them I ain't second to none.

A

And I told about equality,

E5

and it's true, either you're wrong or you're right, oh!

B

But, if you're thinkin' about my baby,

A E5

it don't matter if you're black or white.

I am tired of this devil,

I am tired of this stuff,

I am tired of this business,

D5 Em

So when the going gets rough.

I ain't scared of your brother,

I ain't scared of no sheets,

I ain't scared of nobody

D5 Em

Girl, when the goin' gets mean.

E

Protection for gangs, clubs and nations,

Causing grief in human relations.

It's a turf war, on a global scale,

I'd rather hear both sides of the tale.

See, it's not about races, just places, faces,

Where your blood comes from is where your space is.

I've seen the bright get duller,

I'm not gonna spend my life being a color.

A

Don't tell me you agree with me,

E5

When I saw you kicking dirt in my eye, oh oh.

B

But, if you're thinkin' about my baby

A E5

It don't matter if you're black or white.

B

I said if you're thinkin' of being my baby

A E5

It don't matter if you're black or white.

B

I said if you're thinkin' of being my brother

A E5

It don't matter if you're black or white.

Alright, alright

oh, ooh

Alright

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Alright, alright

oh, ooh

Come on

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Come on

oh

It's black, it's white.

It's tough for you to get by.

It's black, it's white, whoo.

It's black, it's white.

It's tough for you to get by.

It's black, it's white, whoo.
