Morning in America Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]1600, 1600, 1600 on the SATs
Said they gettin', said they gettin'
Said they gettin' me an SUV
Just a couple miles from
the lights of the city
[Bm]Pour a little [D]liquor in my Starbucks Venti
Just 11, just 11 when they said
I had the ADD

[Verse 2]
I've been [G]trying to keep up with all
of these great expect[Bm]ations
So I keep [G]on faking

[Verse 3]
We're [D]secretly out of control,
nobody knows it
But my mom's got a problem with
oxy's and she's angry
Cause my dad's office
door's always closed
[G]But I s[D]topped knocking
Yeah, we're secretly out of
control and everyone knows
Oh, it's morning in America
Oh, it's morning in America
Oh, it's morning in America

[Verse 4]
Oh, it's morning in America
[D]
At the locker, at the locker
At the locker selling time release
Where's the party? Where's
the party?
Where's the party? There's
a house empty
Didn't learn a lesson,
didn't use protection
Doesn't wanna keep the baby
Throwing up in the alley, in the alley
Older brother looking for me

[Verse 5]
I've been [G]trying to keep up with all
of these great [Bm]expectations
So I keep on [G]faking

[Verse 6]
We're [D]secretly out of control,
nobody knows it
But my mom's got a problem with
oxy's and she's angry
Cause my dad's office
door's always closed
But I stopped knocking
Cause there's some things I
don't wanna know
We're secretly out of control,
nobody [Dsus4]says it
[G]When the [Bm]class president overdosed,
[G]we all pretended
It was [D]rare, it was shocking and
all the town was talking
Yeah, we're [Bm]secretly out of
[G]control and everyone knows
[D]Oh, it's morning in America
Oh, it's morning in America
And everyone knows
Oh, it's morning in America

[Verse 7]
Oh, it's morning in America
[D]No,[Dsus4][D][Bm][G]
[D]no—No, no
[Bm]We're [G]sec[D]retly out of control,
[G]nobody knows me
And [Bm]my friends all addicted to porn,
can't [G]keep a girlfriend
Cause the [D]great expectations
got [G]all us [D]imitat[G]ing
Yeah, [Bm]we're secretly out of control
[G]and everyone kno[D]ws

[Verse 8]
We're [D]secretly out of control,
nobody knows it
[G]But my [Bm]mom's got a problem with
[G]oxy's and she's angry
Cause my [D]dad's office
door's always closed
But I stopped [G]knocking
Cause there's [Bm]some things I
don't wanna [G]know
We're [D]secretly out of control,
nobody says it
[G]When the [Bm]class president overdosed,
[G]we all pretended
It was [D]rare, it was shocking and
all the town was talking
Yeah, we're [Em]secretly out of [D]control
and everyone knows
Oh, it's morning in America
Oh, it's morning in America
And everyone knows
Oh, it's morning in America
Oh, it's morning in America
And everyone knows
