[Verse]
D#sus2
Getting my facts from a Benetton ad
D#sus2
I'm lookin' through African eyes
D#sus2
Lit by the glare of an A  fire 
(black tie, white noise)
D#sus2
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
D#sus2
Sun comes up and the man goes down
D#sus2
And the woman comes again
D#sus2
Just an hour or so to be safe from 
fear (black tie, white noise)
D#sus2
Then we jump through hoops, we're 
divisible now, just disappear
Gmaj7                             
 Putting on the black tie, 
          F#
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

But we'll come through don't doubt 
it
  G#
I look into your eyes and I know you
 won't kill me
  Fm                               
I look into your eyes and I know 
        C#
you won't kill me
D#sus2
You won't kill me
D#sus2
You won't kill me, no
D#sus2
But I look into your eyes
D#sus2
And I wonder sometimes
D#sus2 Gmaj7                     
       Putting on the black tie, 
                 F#
cranking out the white noise

[Verse]
D#sus2
Oh Lord, just let him see me
D#sus2
Lord, Lord just let him hear me
D#sus2
Let him call me brother
D#sus2
Let him put his arms around me
Gmaj7                   F#
Let him put his hands together

[Chorus]
G#
We reach out over race and hold each
 other's hands

Then die in the flames singing "we 
shall overcome"
C#           G#

But we'll come through don't doubt

I look into your eyes and I know 
        C#
you won't kill me
D#sus2
You won't kill me, no
D#sus2
But I wonder why
D#sus2
Yes, and I wonder why sometimes
D#sus2 Gmaj7                     
       Putting on the black tie, 
                 F#
cranking out the white noise

[Verse]
D#sus2
They'll show us how to break the 
rules
D#sus2
But never how to make the rules
D#sus2
Reduce us down to witless punks 
(black tie, white noise)
D#sus2
Fascist cries both black and white
D#sus2
Who's got the blood, who's got the 
gun
Gmaj7                             
 Putting on the black tie, 
          F#
cranking out the white noise
D#sus2  Gmaj7                    
         Putting on the black 
                   F#
tie, cranking out the white noise
