C#m I was an A August B baby
C#m Con - E ceived by the F# Christmas C#m lights
C#m I came in - A to the B world by t C#m he setting sun
E On a humid F# summer night
When my A grandmother held me for the very first time
She thanked B God I looked like my daddy
And I A never quite knew just what she meant
But I B knew she was a little too happy
And now I C#m see
You can't A change a stubborn B mind C#m
You can't E see the F# world if your C#m eyes are blind
What does A it mat B ter an F# y - way
In our A darkest hour
We're B all just shades of C#m grey A B C#m E
F#
C#m They got A married in a tiny c B hapel C#m
C#m Malcolm X was A on the B ra - C#m dio
When he E took her as his F# wife
And she A looked so pretty that September day
And her B older brother cried as he gave her away
And the A minister looked like he didn't know what to say B
And then he C#m spoke
You can't A change a B stubborn C#m mind
You can't E see the F# world if your C#m eyes are blind
What does it A matter B any - F# way
In our A darkest hour
We're B all just shades of F# grey A B F# A B
Solo: C#m A B C#m E F# x2
When my A grandmother held me for the very first time
She thank B ed God I looked like my daddy
And I A never gave a damn just what she meant
But I B knew she was a little too happy
And now I C#m see
You can't A change a B stubborn C#m mind
You can't E see the F# world if your C#m eyes are blind
What does it A matter B any - F# way
In our A darkest hour
We're B all just shades of F# grey
In our A darkest hour we're B all just shades of
