e Am7~  ''''

   A5          C5            G5         A5       (P.M.)
We flipped our finger to the king of England
F5        C5               G5  A5                (embarque)
Stole our country from the Indians
     C5         G5       F5          A5
With God on our side and guns in our hands
   F5              E5
We took it for our own

A nation dedicated to liberty
Justice and equality
Does it look that way to you? it doesn't look that way to me
The sickest joke I know

  C5        G5             F5        A5
  Listen up man, I'll tell you who I am
  Just another stupid American
  You don't wanna listen, you don't wanna understand
     F5             E5           A5
  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
Joe McCarthy, Vietnam
The sickest joke I know

  Refrain

        F5         E5
    I'm proud and ashamed
          A5
    Every fourth of July
        B5                               (P.M.)                           
    You got to know the truth
               E5                          <
    Before you say that you got pride

(couplet basse - fin f e rapide)  w/ solo

Now the cops got tanks 'cause the kids got guns            (flottement A5)
Shrinks pushin' pills on everyone
Cancer from the ocean, cancer from the sun
F5 (reste)
Straight to hell we go

  Refrain  x 2  (saute le A5 entre les 2)

  F5             E5              A5 \
  Finish up your drink... and go home
