This is the corrected version. The *’s mean it’s the
chord an octave higher, so figure that out yourself.
[Are we starting from the beginning or what? Yeah.]
Intro:
B A D F#* (x2) G* D* E* A G A E* (All x2)
Verse 1:
B A D F#*
The man on the television said I need to drink this,
B A D F#*
And sleep with that in order to be cool.
G* D* E* A
And you know that I would do almost anything,
G A E*
To be like that guy on TV.
G* D* E* A
I know that if I had just the right outfit
G A E*
And hairstyle that could be me.
Verse 2:
B A D F#*
Don’t you know you can’t be cool if you dress dumb,
B A D F#*
I need to have that ‘cause everybody’s got one.
G* D* E* A
I think I’ll start smoking that would make me intellectual,
G A E*
That’s what I’ve always wanted to be.
G* D* E* A
I need to lift weights, that would make me more sexual,
G A E*
And that would be so good for me.
Chorus:
F C F C
In America it’s wonderful, all you have to do is fake it.
G D G D
Own anything you want, all you have to do it take it.
F C F C
Live for today, don’t think about tomorrow,
G D G D
Have a good time in America-Gomorrah.

What are you looking at, you better not make me mad.

I’ll drive by your house and shoot your dog, and mom, and dad.
G* D* E* A G A E*
I don’t you or the Bible or anything to tell me what is the law.
G* D* E* A G A E*
With a good enough lawyer I can do anything in Beautiful America.
