Colored People

 
Intro:
D A G 4X

D        A        G       D                 A       G 
1...1...1...1...2...2...2...2...3...3...3...3...4...4...4...4...

Bm G       Em
Pardon me, your epidermis is showing
Bm      G      Em
I couldn't help but note your shade of melanin
Bm G     Em
I tip my hat to the colourful arrangement
Bm G        Em
Cause I see the beauty in the tones of our skin

C   G      A
We gotta come together, and thank the maker of us all

D         A G
We're colored people, and we live in a tainted place
D           A   G
We're colored people, and they call us the human race
D         A G
We've got a history so full of mistakes
D        A         G
And we are colored people who depend on a Holy Grace

A

Bm      G         Em
A piece of canvas is only the beginning
Bm      G Em
It takes on character with every loving stroke
Bm          G     Em
This thing of beauty is the  passion  of an artist's heart
Bm     G          Em
By God's design, we are a skin kaleidoscope


C G       A
We gotta come together, aren't we all human after all?

D         A G
We're colored people, and we live in a tainted place
D           A   G
We're colored people, and they call us the human race
D         A G
We've got a history so full of mistakes
D        A         G
And we are colored people who depend on a Holy Grace


Bm Bm4
Ignorance has wronged some races
Bm   Bm9
And vengeance is the Lord's
Bm    Bm4
If we aspire to share this space
Em        G A
Repentance is the cure

D        A        G       D                 A       G 
1...1...1...1...2...2...2...2...3...3...3...3...4...4...4...4...

        D
Well, just a day in the shoes of a color blind man
      A G
Should make it easy for you to see
D
That these diverse tones do more than cover our bones
       A G
As a part of our anatomy

D         A G
We're colored people, and we live in a tainted place
D           A   G
We're colored people, and they call us the human race
D         A G
We've got a history so full of mistakes
D        A         G
And we are colored people who depend on a Holy Grace
