Time stops when the whispers blare
N.C.
The voices drop hard, but the eyes still stare
Fm
The world resolves into a death's head grin
G# D#
Because I walk with pride with a black girlfriend

My mom said not to bring her around
A# G# A# D#
'Cause she's black my family would put her down
A# G# A# Fm
I'll break the white-trash ties that bind
G# D# A# G# A#
Trade a love so pure for a hate so blind

Time stops when we lie so close
A# G# A# D#
In my room where we share what no one knows
A# G#
From the day that we start
A# Fm
Until the day that we end
G# Fm
I know I know I know now
G# A# D# A# G#
We will never find a place where we can just fit in
A# D# A#
Me and my black girlfriend

Whoa!
