Am C G Am
we flipped our finger to the king of england
F C G Am
stole our country from the indians
Am G F Am
with god at our side and guns in our hands
F E7
we took it for our own
a nation dedicated to liberty
justice and equality
doesn't look that way to you
it doesn't look that way to me
the sickest joke i know
[chorus]
C G F Am
listen up man, i'll tell you who i am
just another stupid american
you don't wanna listen
you don't wanna understand
F E Am
so finish up your drink and go home
i come from the land of ben franklin
Twain and Poe and Walt whitman
otis redding, ellington
the country that i love
but it's a land of the slaves and the ku klux klan

haymarket riot and the great depression
don't get caught in vietnam
the sickest joke i know
[chorus]
F E
i'm proud and ashamed
Am

B
you got to know the truth
E
before you say that you got pride
[solo]
[chorus]
Now the cops got tanks 'cause the kids got guns
shrinks pushin' pills on everyone
cancer from the ocean
cancer from the sun
straight to hell we go
[chorus 2x]
