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

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

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