His skin wasn't the same color as mine
(her skin wasn't the same color as mine)
           E/B          D#m/C#
But he was fine, he was fine
(but she was fine, she was fine)
   G#m9
If all men are made equal, then
        E/B          D#m/C#
He was fine, he was fine
(she was fine, she was fine)
G#m9
Up until the time we went out on a date
       E/B        D#m/C#
I was fine, I was fine
        G#m9
Now I'm getting dirty looks,
I wonder what they'd say
           E/B              D#m/C#
If we were blind, we were blind people

Chorus:
G#m9
We've got a long way to go
     E/B
When snow hits the asphalt
D#m/C#
Cold looks and bad talk come
G#m9
We've got a long way to go
       E/B
It's beyond Martin Luther
D#m/C#
Upgrade computer
G#m9
We've got a long way to go
     E/B
When snow hits the asphalt
D#m/C#
Cold looks and bad talk come
G#m9
We've got a long way to go
       E/B
It's beyond Martin Luther
D#m/C#
Upgrade computer

Beauty is beauty, whether it's black or white
Yellow or green, baby, you know what I mean
What if Picasso only used one color?
There shouldn't be a rule how to choose your lover
Lovers in love is such a wonderful thing
Maybe in time we'll get together and sing
I really hope so, there's nothing wrong
with this picture
We go a long way to go, we gotta get there quick
Ooohh

Chorus

G#m9
What color... is love?
What color... is love?
What color... is love?

Chorus
