Amythyst Kiah — Black Myself

Текст песни с аккордами

    	    	Вступление

Standard tuning, no Capo. THis is the GemsOnVHS version, the official version is pretty much the same though.
This is a very bluesy song, so listen to it a few times to get the rhythm and chord switches right.
When playing the quick E-E/G-E-switch, slightly bend the 3rd fret E string to get the right sound.

[Verse 1]
        E                               E/G    E
I wanna jump the fence and wash my face in the creek
        A     G E   E/G E
But I'm black myself
        E                          E/G E
I wanna sweep that gal right off her   feet
        A     G E    E/G E
But I'm black myself
             E                      E/G   E
I'm tired of walkin' 'round with no shoes on
           A     G E    E/G E
'Cause I'm black myself
         E                        E/G   E
And your precious god ain't gonna bless me
           A     G E   E/G E
'Cause I'm black myself

[Chorus]
       G                   E
Is you washed in the blood of your chattel?
           G              E
'Cause the lamb's rotted away
          G
When they stopped shipping work horses
                A
They bred their own anyway, ooh

[Interlude]
E E/G E A G E E/G E

[Verse 2]
        E                          E/G E
I don't pass the test of the paper bag
           A     G E    E/G E
'Cause I'm black myself
           E                         E/G E
I pick the banjo up and they sneer at    me
           A     G E    E/G E
'Cause I'm black myself
           E                      E/G  E
You better lock your doors when I walk by
           A     G E    E/G E
'Cause I'm black myself
            E                        E/G E
You look me in my eyes but you don't see me
           A     G E    E/G E
'Cause I'm black myself

[Chorus]
       G                   E
Is you washed in the blood of your chattel?
           G              E
'Cause the lamb's rotted away
          G
When they stopped shipping work horses
                A
They bred their own anyway, ooh

[Verse 3]
        E                           E/G E
I don't creep around, I stand proud and free
           A     G E    E/G E
'Cause I'm black myself
     E                  E/G E
I go anywhere that I wanna  go
           A     G E    E/G E
'Cause I'm black myself
       E                      E/G E
I'm surrounded by many lovin' arms
           A     G E    E/G E
'Cause I'm black myself
         E                            E/G  E
And I'll stand my ground and smile in your face
           A     G E    E/G E
'Cause I'm black myself

[Chorus]
          G                E
I washed away my blood and tears
          G          E
I've been born brand new
        G
There's no more work horses
              A              E    E/G E
But still some work to do, yeah
           A     G E    E/G E
'Cause I'm black myself
E E/G E           A     G E    E/G E
       'Cause I'm black myself
           E                     E/G E          A            G E          E/G E
'Cause I'm black myself, black myself, black myself, black myself, black myself
        E   E/G E
Black myself
A     G E    E/G E
Black myself
           A     G    A     G
'Cause I'm black my—, black my—
A     G  E
Black myself
