INTRO:   Bb   C   Dm  (x 4)

                Bb   C   Dm
Black and white boy
                Bb   C   Dm
black and white boy
            G
you're so extreme
             Bm
you're so confused
         Bb   C    Dm
color me in
         Bb         C    Dm
whatever mood I'm in
           G
I could be still
              Bm
in touch with you

           G
And you're full of the wonder of spring
         Bm
it's all sweetness and lightness you bring
      F#                                        D
and a room full of people fall to your infinite charm
         G
but when darkness should quickly descend
       Bm
you go quietly, my miserable friend
       F#
to the depths of despair you will crawl
                Bb   C   Dm
black and white boy

Black and white boy
black and white boy
you're so extreme
you're so confused
color me in
whatever mood I'm in
I could be still
in touch with you

When you shake off the shadows of night
and your eyes are so clear and so bright
you'll make fools of the liars and creeps
put a rose in my cheeks
but when demons have climbed on your back
you are vicious and quick to attack
        F#
and you put on a wonderful show
       F#
do you really, really think I don't know?
                D       F#    D   F#
black and white boy

And you run like a cat to the cream
and you're acting so nice it's obscene
you put on a wonderful show
do you really, really think I don't know?
black and white boy
