[G]There's a black man, with a black cat
[G]Living in a black neighborhood
He's got a[G]interstate running 
through his front yard
You know he th[F]inks he's....
g[C]ot it so go[G]od.
And there's a [G]woman, in the kitchen, 
[G]cleaning up the evening slop
And he lo[F]oks at 'er and says
Hey Darli[C]n' I remember when you could[G], 
stop a clock

But ain't that Amer[C]ica, for you and [G]me
Ain't that Americ[C]a, somethin' to se[G]e baby
Ain't that Americ[C]a, home of the fre[D]e
Little Pink Houses for y[C]ou and me, 
yeah for you and m[G]e

[G][C][G]

Now there's a [G]young man, in a t-shirt, 
[G]listening to a rock and rollin' station
He's got[G]greasy hair and a, greasy smile,
he says "[F]Lord this must[C] be my destinat[G]ion"
Cause he t[G]old me, when I was younger, 
sayin' "[G]Boy ya gonna be President"
But just like e[F]verything else, those c[C]razy dreams, 
kinda came and [G]went

But ain't that Amer[C]ica, for you and [G]me
Ain't that Americ[C]a, somethin' to se[G]e baby
Ain't that Americ[C]a, home of the fre[D]e
Little Pink Houses for y[C]ou and me, 
yeah for you and m[G]e

[G]and what do they know know know

at the [C]Gulf of Mexi[G]co! (ooooh yeah)
And there's w[G]inners, and there's losers,
[G]but that ain't no big deal
Cause the [F]simple man, baby, pays for [C]thrills, 
with bills, and [G]pills that kill

Ah, but ain't that Amer[C]ica, for you and [G]me
Ain't that Americ[C]a, somethin' to se[G]e baby
Ain't that Americ[C]a, home of the fre[D]e
Little Pink Houses for y[C]ou and me, ooooh[G]

Ain't that Amer[C]ica, for you and [G]me
Ain't that Americ[C]a, somethin' to se[G]e baby
Ain't that Americ[C]a, home of the fre[D]e
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, [C]yeah, 
Little Pink Houses for you and m[G]e
