[Spoken Intro]

Hey baby

Hey baby

[Verse 1]
E
Maybe I was born sick
F#min
In a castle on top of the world
E
Maybe the whole gang is better off
F#min No Chord
Makin' money out fightin' a war
E
Terminal motion
E D# F#min
Keeps spinnin' me around
E
Temporary devotion
E D# F#min
With a picket fence and a rowdy crowd

[Pre-Chorus]
A G# E
Well I was sure that everything was goin' fine
A G# F#min
Until you took the shot and killed me with your mind
E
I'm a man and I wanna be honest
E
I'm better than I used to be

[Chorus]
A E F#min E
But now the whole world is wired up
A E B
On the red, white, and the green
A E F#min E
And all the boys and girls are growin' up
G B E
In a strange American dream

[Verse 2]
E
Temperature risin'
F#min
And the water tastes like blood
E
Look at all of the sensitive people
F#min
Screamin' from their yards
E E A/E E
And my neighbor down the street
F#min
With the pretty face and the rubber jaw
E
Has plenty there to eat
F#min
But she don't share nothin' at all

[Pre-Chorus]
A G# E
Well I was sure that everything was goin' fine
A G# F#min
Until you took the shot and killed me with your mind
E
I'm a man and I wanna be honest
