Verse 1
Why do (A minor) we hate?
We hate because we're taught to hate.
(E major) We hate because we're ignorant.
We're the (G major) product of
ignorant people
who have been taught an ignorant (D minor) thing,
which is that there are four or five
different races.
(F major) There are not four
or five different (C major) races.
There's only one race on the face of the earth,
(E flatdim) and we're all members of that race,
the human race.
(E major) But we have (A minor) separated people into races
so that some of (E major) us may
see ourselves
as superior to the others.
(G major) We thought it would work, I guess.
It hasn't worked.
It has been (D minor) bad for everyone.
It's time to get over this busi (F major) ness.
There is no gene for racism.
(C major) There's no gene for bigotry.
You're not born a big (B flat#) ot,
you have to (E flatdim) learn to be a bigot.
Anything you learn, you can (E major) unlearn.
It's time to unlearn (C major) our bigotry.
(B flat#) It's time to (A minor) get over this thing,
and we best get over it pretty soon. (E major) (E flat major) (E flat5) (C major) (A minor) (E major)

(A minor) (B flat#) (F major) (B flat#) (F major)
(E major) (B flat#) (C major) (D minor) (E major) (F major)
Proud (A minor) American,
can you please (D minor) ex (C major) plain
(A minor) in simple words (F major)
How (D minor) you think someone (A minor) like them will
Build (G major) a safer,
(D minor) (C major) more (A minor) human state
(F major) for you to live (D minor) in
I (A minor) am only (B flat#) trying (D minor) to under (A minor) stand
Where you come from,
(B flat#) where you're dy (D minor) ing to (A minor) go
There must (A major) be something (A minor) (B flat#) wrong
(E flatdim) with (D minor) the way I (A minor) think
Can't comprehend (B flat#) all that
you (D minor) seem to know (A minor)
True American
Somehow you're convinced
that (C major) you are (F major) worth more
Based (D minor) on the col (A minor) or of your skin
Education (D minor) failed (A minor) but it's not too (F major) late
For (D minor) you to (A minor) unlearn
