Em
Amen, on the runway,
Dress in its best.
Amen fashion, on the runway,
Work it! Black Jesus.
Amen, on the runway,
Dress in its best.
Amen fashion, on the runway,
Work it! Black Jesus.
Now there`s a small part you can figure out by your self or just play an Em chord for 4 beats.
Use the same pattern from the last chorus & verse for the next verse & chorus.
Verse 2
Dancing in my revalation,on a ground pop civilization.
Concrete poetry to feed my mind mood,symbolism was left behind.
There's no way I could be stopped, Was taken my best shot,I have better plans.
There no way I could be stopped,Was coming for your spot.I'm in a battle, man.
Chorus 2
Amen, on the runway,
Dress in its best.
Amen fashion, on the runway,
Work it! Black Jesus.

Use the Em to C repeat from the start of the song now.
