Chords

[Intro] Em C G [Verse 1]
Em              C               G
What will you do on the weekends

Em                      
When your best friends

C                        G
Become your dead friends?

Em
From all the sugar

C                    G
And all the sweetness

Em                   
This little sweet tooth

C                  G
It is your weakness
[Chorus]
G                      Em
They've got american candy

                    C           G
You're sweet and sated, so sedated

                  Em
For the american kids

                     C              G
You're hooked and baited, annihilated

             Em
Even if you wanted to

                        C             G
You couldn't stop it's just so sweet

                   Em       
But this american candy

C               Em        C       G
It'll rot your teeth
[Verse 2]
Em                   C                  G
Try to think back to back to a time when

Em                       C                   G
You loved what you loved because you loved it

Em
Before the sugar

C                    G
And all the sweetness

Em
Filled up your lungs now

C                     G
It's all you breath in
[Chorus]
G                      Em
They've got american candy

                    C           G
You're sweet and sated, so sedated

                  Em
For the american kids

                     C              G
You're hooked and baited, annihilated

             Em
Even if you wanted to

                        C             G
You couldn't stop it's just so sweet

                   Em       
But this american candy

C               G
It'll rot your teeth, your teeth, your!
[Bridge] (C-G-Em-D all the way)
C                               G
Sometimes I feel as though I'm going mad when

Em                      D
I get a touch of saccharine on my lips

C                            G
I hate the taste on my tongue too damn sweet

Em            D             C        G        Em
I don't fancy american candy

D             C       G       Em       D
American candy
C (one stroke) [Chorus]
                     Em
They've got american candy

                    C           G
You're sweet and sated, so sedated

                  Em
For the american kids

                     C              G
You're hooked and baited, annihilated

             Em
Even if you wanted to

                        C             G
You couldn't stop it's just so sweet

                   Em       
But this american candy

C               G
It'll rot your teeth
Until your gums the bleed [Coda] (C-G-Em-D)
C                            G
I hate the taste on my tongue too damn sweet

Em             D
I don't fancy american candy,

C    G                   Em          D
Oh, you're so-so-so sweet and sated, baby

C                            G
I hate the taste on my tongue too damn sweet

Em             D
I don't fancy american candy
