 Roughneck and rudeness,
        F#m/E    F#m6              DM7
 We should be using, on the ones who practice wicked charms
            F#m
 For the sword and the stone
      F#m/E
 Bad to the bone
        F#m6
 Battle is not over
    DM7
 Even when it's won
 Bm             F#m
 And when a child is born into this world
 G#
 It has no concept
    G#
Of the tone the skin is living in

 J'assume les raisons qui nous poussent de changer tout,
 F#m        F#m/E      F#m6      DM7
 J'aimerais qu'on oublie leur couleur pour qu'ils espèrent
 F#m          F#m/E           F#m6
 Beaucoup de sentiments de race qui font qu'ils désespèrent
          DM7
 Je veux les portes grandement ouvertes,
       F#m              F#m/E           F#m6  DM7
 Des amis pour parler de leur peine, de leur joie
               F#m6         DM7
 Pour qu'ils leur filent des infos qui ne divisent pas
 C#m
 Changer

       A      C#m
 And there's a million voices
       A      G#
 And there's a million voices
       G#7
 To tell you what she should be thinking
        G#7        C#m
 So you better sober up for just a second
