[Verse 1]
C                  D
 Let me tell y'all what it's like
F
 Being male, middleclass, and white
C                    D
 It's a bitch if you don't believe
F
 Listen up to my new CD
Shamon
C D F C D F

[Verse 2]
C             D
 I got shit runnin' throught my brain
F                C
 So intense that I can't explain
             D
All alone in my whiteboy pain
F                       C
 Shake your booty while the band complains
D F C D F                 D5
         I'm rockin' the suburbs

[Chorus]
           F5                C5
Just like Michael Jackson did
                 D5
I'm rockin' the suburbs
             F5            C5
Except that he was talented
                 D5
I'm rockin' the suburbs
              F5                    C5
I take the checks and face the facts
              D5                         F5
That some producer with computers fixes all my shitty
tracks

[Instrumental]
C D F C D F C

[Verse 3]
C                           D
 I'm pissed off, but I'm too polite
F                             C
 When people break in the McDonald's line
                           D
Mom and Dad you made me so uptight
   F                     C
I'm gonna cuss on the mic tonight
D                          F
 I don't know how much I can take
C                            D
 Girl, give me something I can break
                 D5
I'm rockin' the suburbs

[Chorus]
            F5          C5
Just like Quiet Riot did
                 D5
I'm rockin' the suburbs
               F5             C5
Except that they were talented
                 D5
I'm rockin' the suburbs
              F5                    C5
I take the checks and face the facts
              D5                         F5
That some producer with computers fixes all my shitty
tracks

[Instrumental]
C F C F C F
C F       C        F
   In a haze these days

[Verse 4]
  C              F
I pull up to the stop light
        C                   F
I can feel that something's not right
        C            F                  C
I can feel someone's blasting me with hate
    F
And bass
          C            F
Sendin' dirty vibes my way
             C
'Cause my great, great, great,
      F
great granddad
                  C
Made someone's great, great, great, great,
F                C F
granddaddies slaves
              C  F
It wasn't my idea
              C  F
It wasn't my idea
              C  F
Never was my idea
                  D
Just drove to the store
         F            C D
For some Preparation H

[Instrumental]

[Bridge]
C                 D
 Y'all don't know what it's like

 Being male, middleclass and white
C                 D
 Y'all don't know what it's like

                      D
Y'all don't know what it's like
F                        C
 Being male, middleclass and white
           C
It gets me real pissed off,
              D
it makes me wanna say
           F
It gets me real pissed off,
                  C
and it makes me wanna say
It gets me real pissed off,
                  D
and it makes me wanna say
F
Fuck!

[Chorus]
D5            F5            C5
  Just like Jon Bon Jovi did
                 D5
I'm rockin' the suburbs
             F5            C5
Except that he was talented
                 D5
I'm rockin' the suburbs
              F5                    C5
I take the checks and face the facts
              D5                         F5
That some producer with computers fixes all my shitty
tracks
        F C

You'd better look out,
because I'm gonna say Fuck
