Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][C][G][Asus4][D]
[C][G][Am][D]

[Verse 1]
Two [D]boys
on a [G]play[D]ground
[G]Tryin' to push [D]each other down
See the crowd [Bm]gather [D]'round
[G]Nothing attracts a [D]crowd like a crowd

[Verse 2]
Black [D]gold in a white plight
Won't you [C]fill up [G]the tank,
let's go [Am]for a[D] ride
I don't care 'bout no wheelchair
I've got [C]so much [G]left to
[A]do with my [D]life

[Verse 3]
[D]
Moving backward[Bm]s through tim[D]e
[G]Never lea[Bm]rn, nev[D]er mind
That [A]side's [D]yours, this [Bm]side's [D]mine
[G]Brother you[D] ain't my kind

[Verse 4]
You're [D]a black soldier, white fight
Won't you [C]fill up the [G]tank,
let's [Am]go for a[D] ride
Sure like to feel some pride
But this [C]place just [G]makes me
feel [Am]sad i[D]nside

[Verse 5]
[C]Mother, do you [Em]know where
your kids are tonight?
[A]

[Interlude 1]
[D][A][D][Dm][D]
[Dm][D]
[C][G][Am][D]

[Verse 6]
Keeps the kids [G]off the [D]streets
Gives 'em [G]something to do,
[Asus4]something [D]to eat
This spot was a [Bm]play[D]ground
[G]This flat [D]land used to be a town

[Verse 7]
[G]Bla[D]ck gold in a white plight
Won't you [C]fill up the [G]tank,
let's go [Am]for a[D] ride
Sure like to feel some pride
But this [C]place just [G]makes me feel [Am]sad [D]inside

[Verse 8]
[G]Bla[D]ck gold in a white plight
Won't you [C]fill up the [G]tank,
let's [Am]go for a[A] rid[D]e
I don't care 'bout no wheelchair
I've got [C]so much [Bm]left to
[G]do [Am]with [D]my life

[Outro 1]
[C][Em][A][D]
