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


[Chorus 1]
       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
Bred your own anyway
    E7  E
Ohh ohh


[Instrumental]
A  E    E7    A  E


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


[Chorus 2]
        G                          E
They're washed in the blood of the chattel
           G              E
'Cause the lamb's rotted away
          G
When they stopped shipping work horses
                A               E
They bred their own anyway. Ohh ohh

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


[Chorus 3]
          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
But there's still work to do_


[Outro]
           A       E
'Cause I'm black myself (Black myself)
           A       E
'Cause I'm black myself (Black myself)
           A        E
'Cause I'm black myself (Black myself)
           A       E
'Cause I'm black myself
A         G                 E
Black my, black my€“, black myself
