Life here in [C5]america,

[Verse 1]
there's hatred everywhere
We think we're all untouchable
and no [G5]one seems [D5]to care
We all [G5]want all [C5]the luxuries a car,
[G5]a house, a[C5] home
[D5]We want [C5]a safe society [C]but
leave [G5]our guns a[D5]lone

[Verse 2]
[Dm]We cater t[C]o aristocrats we want
[Am]our basic [C]rights[Dm]
[D5]If we piss off a[Am]ll our n[C5]eighbors[C]
[G]we'll send [G5]the poor [D5]to fight
It's hard [Am]to find th[C5]e reason[C]s,
where did [Am]it all [C]go [Dm]wrong?
[D5]And if y[Am]ou all a[C]gree with me y[G]ou'll
help [G5]me sing this song

[Verse 4]
[Am]Right here [G5]in am[C5]erica we[C] got
[Am]college [C5]and healthcare
But if you're really smart [C]enough
to get sick you'd [G5]never [D5]dare
[Dm]The laws h[C]ave all been rigged [C5]now
[C]to help the [C5]middle class
You can bet their money's hidden and
[C]they're nev[G5]er payi[D5]ng ta[Dm]x

[Verse 5]
It's hard [Am]to tell [C]your children
the truth [Am]why you [C]got [Dm]fired
[Am]When the pay your boss is mak
[C]ing [G]just con[G5]tinues [D5]to rise
[Dm]So work yo[D5]ur whole l[C]ife faithfully
just trying [Am]to get a[C]head
[Dm]Then they'll drain all of [C5]your bank
[C]account[G]s until you're [D5]finally dead

[Verse 6]
It's [D5]all l[Am]ies [C]we all believe ameri[C5]can
