Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[Em][Am][Dm][Am][Dm][E][F#m][D][B][F#m][A][Am][A][F#m][E]
[Am]

[Verse 1]
Come to my [D]door,
[Dsus4]baby[Am]
Face is clean and shining [D]black as night
[Am]My mother went to answer[D] your note
And you [Am]looked so [Dsus4]fine
[D]Now I c[G]ould understand
the tears and the shame
[B]She called you boy instead
of your [Em]name
When she wouldn't let you inside
[C]When she turned and said
"But honey, he's [D]not our [G]kind"[D]

[Verse 2]
She said [F#m]I can't see you any more[B],
[F#m]baby
Can't see you any [B]more[Am]

[Verse 3]
Walk me down [D]to school
now [Am]baby
Everybody's acting [D]deaf and blind
[Am]Until they turn and say
"Why [D]don't you stick to
[Am]your own [D]kind"
My [G]teachers all laugh,
they smirked and [B]they stared
Cutting deep down in our affairs
[Em]Preachers of equality
[C]Think they believe it
Then why won't they just
[D]let us [Dsus4]be?[D]

[Verse 4]
They say [F#m]I can't see you any more[B],
[F#m]baby
Can't see [B]you any more

[Verse 5]
[Am]One of these days I'm gonna
[D]stop my listening
[Am]Gonna raise my head up [D]high
[Am]One of these days I'm gonna rais[D]e up
My glistening [Am]wings and [Dsus4]fly[D]
[G]But that day will have to
wait for a while
[B]Cause baby,
I'm only society's [Em]child
When we're older, things may change
[C]But for now this is the way
they [D]must re[Dsus4]main[D]

[Verse 6]
I can't see [F#m]you any more, baby
I can't see you any [B]more[F#m][B]
[Em]No, I don't want to see you any [D]more

[Outro 1]
Baby
[C][B][B]
