G       D              C    D  Eb5
 Just because you're nobody

Em          C                   D
 It doesn't mean that you're no good

G       D               C     D  Eb5
 Just because there's a reason

Em          C               D
 It doesn't mean it's understood
[Chorus]
           D         G    D
It doesn't make it alright

C           D         G    D    C    D
 It doesn't make it alright

             G       D           C    D
Now it's the worst excuse in the world

       G           D         C
And it, it doesn't make it alright
[Post-Chorus] | D C | Bm A5 | D C | Bm A5 | [Verse 2]
G       D              C        D  Eb5
 Just because you're a black boy

Em      C              D
 Just because you're a white

G           D                       C       D  Eb5
 It doesn't mean that you've got to hate him

Em          C                  D
 It doesn't mean you've got to fight
[Chorus]
           D         G    D
It doesn't make it alright

 Doesn't make it alright

         G       D           C    D
It's the worst excuse in the world

       G           D         C
And it, it doesn't make it alright

And it, it doesn't make it alright
[Post-Chorus] | D C | Bm A5 | D C | Bm A5 | [Verse 3]
G            D                    C     D  Eb5
 Some people think they're really clever

Em                 C     D
 They'll bang your head against a wall

G                 D            C     D   Eb5
 And then they'll say "You got it my way"

Em           C                  D
 They really think they know it all
[Chorus]
               D           G    D
But it doesn't make it all right

C           D         G    D    C    D
 It doesn't make it alright

                G       D           C    D
'Cause it's the worst excuse in the world

G           D         C
 It doesn't make it alright
