 Hey Hey America

       A                  E
You're some kind of crazy island

A                     D
 You're a place where dreams can grow

            A               E
And there's history in your mansions

A                    D
Good fortune in your plants

       A              E
You're well respected we all know

A        D
Hey Hey America

Let's check your children

And see what they might know
[Interlude] A D A E A D A E [Verse 2]
A         D
 Hey Hey America

          A                     E
With your salesmanship and your salaries

         A             D
And your strip malls a growin'

         A                 E
And your handguns and your heresies

      A               D
Don't hold no responsibility

        A            E
In this land of easy millions

A               D
Well I prefer a sunny day

       A                               E
I just thought maybe I'd live a little bit longer that way

A                       D
I don't think we should look the same

   A
Or talk the same

       E
Yeah I think it's a shame

   A         D
And Hey Hey America

 A               E
Across the new horizon

A                       D
Are you sure that's the way we should go

       A
'Cause I don't know

               E
Maybe it's too late for all that

A            D
And Hey Hey America

You're wrapped up in your red, white and blue

A        D
Hey Hey America

        A                       E
Wrapped up in yourself and your red, white and blue
