Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]You [G]were born in Ame[Am]rica
Twenty years in [C]a torn up [G]America
And it's not [Am]so terrible in Am[C]erica
[G]And if you go to the[Am] movies
Don't believe what [C]they
show at the movies
[G]The whole wor[Am]ld's in 3D,
it's incred[C]ible

[Verse 2]
[Am]
If you pay me the [Em]ransom[Bm]
I will write you a na[D]tional anthem
[Am]Against the wall with your
[Em]hand[Bm]s up
Don't try anything [Am]funny
[G]Mexican on your dad's

[Verse 3]
[Am]side
Every town has a [C]good and a bad side
[G]And you were born on the[Am]
sad side of [C]America
[G]And I don't have to def[Am]end it
I don't give a shit what [C]Ben
Franklin [G]intended
Or so say all the [Am]men said
But they're all [C]dead[G]
But there's too many rock [Am]songs
Put it all in [C]a two minute pop song
[G]I really needed a love son[Am]g for Ame[C]rica

[Verse 4]
[G]I'm alone in Ame[Am]rica
I wanna go back [C]home in [G]America
Clean me out like an [Am]en ema
Miss [C]America[G]
You will vote for [Am]America
For the highways [C]and court of America
[G]How you're not even dead yet[Am]
When they bury [C]ya

[Outro 1]
[G][Asus4][Am][C]
[G][Am][C][Am][G][Am]
[C][G][Am][C]
