Verse 1:

 G                      Am        
You're a little bit racist.

       D                     G      
Well, you're a little bit too.

               A7                   Bm         
I guess we're both a little bit racist.

   Am                            D                                                          
Admitting it is not an easy thing to do... but I guess it's true, between me and you,

I think
 G                         Am             G        
Everyone's a little bit racist, sometimes.

 G                           Am                 E            E7    
Doesn't mean we go around committing hate crimes.      

 Am                               
Look around and you will find
A7                              
No one's really color blind.

 G              Bm7                     B7     
Maybe it's a fact we all should face

 Am7                            D   
Everyone makes judgments    

                G   
Based on race.  


(dialogue)

Chorus:
 G                         Am           G     
Everyone's a little bit racist today.

 G                              Am        E          E7    
So, everyone's a little bit racist, okay!      

 Am                                 
Ethinic jokes might be uncouth,

 A7                                               
But you laugh because they're based on truth.

 G                    Bm7          B7          
Don't take them as personal attacks.

 Am7                        D   
Everyone enjoys them -  

      G      
So relax!

Verse 2:
 F                     Gm         
You're a little bit racist.

       C                     F      
Well, you're a little bit too.

       Bb                  Gm         
We're all a little bit racist.

   Gm                              C                                                     
I think that I would have to agree with you. We're glad you do. It's sad but true!

 F                         Gm          
Everyone's a little bit racist -

     F                                         
All right, all right, all right, all right!

 F                          Gm7           D         D7    
Bigotry has never been exclusively white     

 Gm                            
If we all could just admit

         G7                          
That we are racist a little bit,

 F                Am7                    A7        
Even though we all know that it's wrong,

 Gm                         C   
Maybe it would help us   

       F      
Get along.


(music swells to the key of A)

 A                         Bm7         
Everyone's a little bit racist.

     A      
I'm not!

                   Bm       
How many Oriental wives

          A      
Have you got?

 Bm                                    
Hey, Brian, buddy, where you been?

     B7                         
The term is Asian-American!

 A                C#m7    
I know you are no

              C#7    
Intending to be

      Bm                       E   
But calling me Oriental -   

              A     
Offensive to me!


     C#m                         
The Jews have all the money

         Bm                            
And the whites have all the power.

         E                    
And I'm always in taxi-cab

With driver who no shower!

 Bb                         Cm              Bb       
Everyone's a little bit racist, It's true!

 Bb                            Cm           Dm          D7    
But everyone is just about racist as you!       

 Cm                                  Bbm                             
If we all could just admit, that we are racist, a little bit


tempo changes into a faster pace:
 Bb                      Dm          Gm    
And everyone stopped being so PC

 Cm                           
Maybe we could live in --

 Bb           Cm    
Harmony     

                                   Bb    
Everyone's a little bit racist!
