Color Line

Color Line (Garland Jeffreys)


A                 C#m                 Bm
When you walk the color line better beware
               E
They're gonna stop and stare
A                   C#m                    Bm
When you cross that color line better take care
             E
You're gonna get your share


Bm                 C#m
People some try to rule the world
   D                          C#m
Rejoicing while the weak ones fade
          Bm
You can't make the black and tan
     C#m                          D
Be a prisoner in his own land
           ( C#m )   E
And turn him into a slave

           A                C#m

Bm           C#m   D                      C#m
Calling on America   and every sister and sir
         Bm
To take freedom instead
   C#m                                   D
Reverse the hearse and down the dread
                     ( C#m )         E
Here's a message daddy gave me to remember

A                 C#m                 Bm
When you walk the color line better beware
              E
They're gonna stop and stare
A                   C#m                    Bm
When you cross that color line better take care
