D#sus2 Getting my facts from a Benetton ad I'm lookin' through African eyes Lit by the glare of an LA fire (black tie, white noise) I've got a face, not just my race, Bang Bang I've got you babe Gmaj7 Putting on the black tie, F# cranking out the white noise Sun comes up and the man goes down And the woman comes again Just an hour or so to be safe from fear (black tie, white noise) Then we jump through hoops, we're divisible now, just disappear Putting on the black tie, cranking out the white noise Chorus: G# We reach out over race and hold each other's hands Fm Then die in the flames singing "we shall overcome" C# G# Whoa! What's going on? Fm There'll be some blood no doubt about it C# But we'll come through don't doubt it G# I look into your eyes and I know you won't kill me Fm C# I look into your eyes and I know you won't kill me You won't kill me You won't kill me, no But I look into your eyes And I wonder sometimes Putting on the black tie, cranking out the white noise Oh Lord, just let him see me Lord, Lord just let him hear me Let him call me brother Let him put his arms around me Let him put his hands together Chorus You won't kill me, no But I wonder why Yes, and I wonder why sometimes Putting on the black tie, cranking out the white noise They'll show us how to break the rules But never how to make the rules Reduce us down to witless punks (black tie, white noise) Fascist cries both black and white Who's got the blood, who's got the gun Putting on the black tie, cranking out the white noise Putting on the black tie, cranking out the white noise | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsA C# Fm F# Gm G# Gmaj7 Gmaj Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
