Intro: Am Am G D x2

Chorus:
Am                      G        D
   Let me take you down equality street
Am                    G          D
   You never know the people you meet
          Am                     G      D
   At the end of the street is a golden gate
      Am                   G      D
   It let in love it don't let in hate, no!

Instrumental: Am Am G D x4

Chorus:
Am                   G        D
   Walk with me down equality street
   Am                   G        D
   Do one to others and laugh it sweet
   Am                        G          D
   Books have no covers just look right in
          Am                           G              D
   You're judged by your words not the colour of your skin

   Am            G             D
   Deyo, deyo, deyo, messay, deyo

   Am                                  G                 D
   Biddily, biddily, biddily, biddily, biddily, biddily, bong, yo!

Instrumental: Am Am G D

Verse:
Am Am   G   D             Am
        Yo, I'm like John Lennon
               G                 D
   Except I do imagine there's a heaven
             Am                         G             D
   Somewhere everyone is welcome all my multicultural brethren
         Am                  G    D          Am
   Where hate is outdated, today, love's the word
                        G    D
   Even for people from Luxembourg
      Am                              G                D
   Or maybe like some other countries that you might ignore, Tonga
Am                        G      D
   Never thought of in my life before
            Am                           G           D
   But if I met a guy from Tonga then we stop and we speak
      Am                   G       D
   In fluent Tongalese on equality street, yep
     Am                 G               D
   Acceptance, see that Kenyan guy with mental eyes
Am                     G                D
   He might be totally normal you can't genralise
   Am                     G      D             Am
   Black people aren't crazy fat people aren't lazy
       G              D
   And dwarfes aren't babies
       Am                    G         D
   You can't just pick 'em up they got rights
       Am                      G                 D
   And anyway don't assume you could they're not light
   Am                    G             D
   I learnt the hard way, don't give a damn
             Am                              G            D
   If you're Russian or you're Spanish we're comrades, compadres
   Am                      G            D
   You could be a half gay woman with a dark face
   Am                G                 D
   One leg, no legs, long as you got a heart, hey
   Am                       G       D
   Transgender, gay, straight, lesbians
   Am                   G             D
   Whatever whoever hey mate let's be friends
       Am                       G               D        Am
   But just friends want you to be where you're properly free
                  G        D
   Obviously yes equality street believe
Am
   You know the deal
        G             D
   That everything is real fair
   Am                       G          D
   Take a ride on my equal opportunity wheelchair, yeah

Chorus:
Am                   G        D
   Come with me down equality street
Am                    G          D
   You never know the people you meet
          Am                     G      D
   At the end of the street is a golden gate
      Am                   G      D
   It let in love it don't let in hate, no
Am  G       D
