White America Chords by Eminem

[Chorus]
Db                          
America Ha ha ha We love you
    Db                                  
How many people are proud to be citizens
        Db                                                 
Of this beautiful country of ours the stripes and the stars
Db                                              
For the rights that men have died for to protect


[Verse]
    Db                                      
The women and men who have broke their necks
                          Db                                                               
For the freedom of speech the United States government has sworn to uphold or so we're told
  Db                                               
I never would've dreamed in a million years I'd see
        Db                                   
So many motherfuckin' people who feel like me
          Db                                       
Who share the same views and the same exact beliefs
            Db7                   Db           
It's like a fuckin' army marchin' in back of me
        Db                                 
So many lives I touched so much anger aimed
      Db                                         
In no particular direction just sprays and sprays
    Db                                                  
And straight through your radio waves it plays and plays
        Db                                        
'til it stays stuck in your head for days and days
    Db                                                        
Who would've thought standin' in this mirror bleachin' my hair
          Db                                    
With some peroxide reachin' for a tshirt to wear
             Db                                        
That I would catapult to the forefront of rap like this
          Db                                               
How could I predict my words would have an impact like this
          Db                                           
I must've struck a chord with somebody up in the office
       Db7                              Db                          
'cause Congress keep tellin' me I ain't causin' nothin' but problems
                Db                                       
And now they're sayin' I'm in trouble with the government
                Db                                                 
I'm lovin' it I shoveled shit all my life and now I'm dumpin' it on


[Chorus]
      Db                                 
White America I could be one of your kids
      Db                                      
White America Little Eric looks just like this
Db                               
White America Erica loves my shit
  Db                                
I go to TRL look how many hugs I get
Db                                       
White America I could be one of your kids
      Db                                      
White America Little Eric looks just like this
      Db                         
White America Erica loves my shit
  Db                                
I go to TRL look how many hugs I get


[Verse]
        Db                                          
Look at these eyes baby blue baby just like yourself
        Db                                             
If they were brown Shady'd lose Shady sits on the shelf
    Db                                                
But Shady's cute Shady knew Shady's dimples would help
            Db                                  
Make ladies swoon baby Ooh baby Look at my sales
         Db                                           
Let's do the math: If I was Black I would've sold half
        Db                                                    
I ain't have to graduate from Lincoln High School to know that
            Db                                        
But I could rap so fuck school I'm too cool to go back
            Db                                       
Give me the mic Show me where the fuckin' studio's at
       Db                                            
When I was underground no one gave a fuck I was White
          Db                                         
No labels wanted to sign me almost gave up I was like
        Db                                       
Fuck it until I met Dre the only one to look past
          Db                                      
Gave me a chance and I lit a fire up under his ass
           Db                                            
Helped him get back to the top every fan Black that I got
    Db                                                        
Was probably his in exchange for every White fan that he's got
          Db                                              
Like damn we just swapped sittin' back lookin' at shit wow
         Db                                                   
I'm like my skin is it startin' to work to my benefit now It's


[Chorus]
      Db                                 
White America I could be one of your kids
Dbm7                      Db                  
White America Little Eric looks just like this
      Db                         
White America Erica loves my shit
  Db                                
I go to TRL look how many hugs I get
      Db                                 
White America I could be one of your kids
Dbm7                      Db                  
White America Little Eric looks just like this
      Db                         
White America Erica loves my shit
  Db                                
I go to TRL look how many hugs I get


[Verse]
    Db                                     
See the problem is I speak to suburban kids
    Db                                             
Who otherwise would've never knew these words exist
      Db                                                   
Whose moms probably would've never gave two squirts of piss
       Db                                      
'til I created so much motherfuckin' turbulence
                 Db                                      
Straight out the tube right into your livin' rooms I came
         Db                                          
And kids flipped when they knew I was produced by Dre
           Db                                             
That's all it took and they were instantly hooked right in
         Db                                              
And they connected with me too because I looked like them


[Chorus]
           Db                                         
That's why they put my lyrics up under this microscope
Db                                                  
Searchin' with a fine tooth comb it's like this rope
        Db                                  
Waitin' to choke tightenin' around my throat
         Dbm7                         Db                  
Watchin' me while I write this like I don't like this note


[Verse]
           Db                                    
All I hear is: lyrics lyrics constant controversy
                 Db                                               
Sponsors workin' 'round the clock to try to stop my concerts early
              Db                                          
Surely hiphop was never a problem in Harlem only in Boston
      Db7                        Db                           
After it bothered the fathers of daughters startin' to blossom
       Db                                                          
So now I'm catchin' the flak from these activists when they raggin'
       Db                                                           
Actin' like I'm the first rapper to smack a bitch or say faggot shit
             Db                          
Just look at me like I'm your closest pal
           Db                                       
The poster child the motherfuckin' spokesman now for


[Chorus]
      Db                                 
White America I could be one of your kids
      Db                                      
White America Little Eric looks just like this
      Db                         
White America Erica loves my shit
     Db                             
I go to TRL look how many hugs I get
      Db                                 
White America I could be one of your kids
      Db                                      
White America Little Eric looks just like this
      Db                         
White America Erica loves my shit
        Db                          
I go to TRL look how many hugs I get


[Bridge]
                                      Dbm7     
So to the parents of America I am the Derringer
                                    Db       
Aimed at little Erica to attack her character
                                 Db             
The ringleader of this circus of worthless pawns
                                             Db         
Sent to lead the march right up to the steps of Congress
            Db                          
And piss on the lawns of the White House


[Outro]
Dbm7                                              Db              
To burn the *galf* and replace it with a Parental Advisory sticker
                      Db7           Db                    
To spit liquor in the faces of this democracy of hypocrisy
                                   Dbm7
Fuck you Ms Cheney Fuck you Tipper Gore
                                        Db7     Db                                           
Fuck you with the freest of speech this Divided States of Embarrassment will allow me to have
     N.C.
Fuck you 
N.C.                             
Ha ha ha I'm just playin' America
N.C.               
You know I love you
