VERSES
E
Oh, I don't know, I don't know, oh where to begin

       A
We are North Americans

E
And for those of you who still think we're from England

            A
We're like, no



E
We've been on planes and on trains

                                     A
Till we think we might die, far from North America

E
Where the buildngs are old

                                     A
And you might have lots of mimes



E
I hate the feeling when you're loookin' at me that way

            A
'Case we're North Americans

E
But if we act all shy, it'll make it okay

                    A
It makes it go away



E
Oh, I don't know, oh, where to begin

           A
When we're North Americans

E
But in the end, make the same mistakes all over again

         A
Come on, North America

Ahh... We're from North America

VERSES
E
And all the kids, all the kids who want to make the scene

        A
Here in North America

E
Well now your kids get to read it in your magizines

                    A
We don't have those



E
So where's the love, where's the love,

                         A
Where's the love tonight

E
But there's no love man,

                                         A
There's no love and the kids are uptight



E
So throw a party until the cops come in and bust it up

         A
Let's go North America

E
Oh, you were planning it I didn't mean to interrupt

       A
Sorry



E
I did it once and my parents got pretty upset

               A
Freaked out in North America

E
But then I said the more I do it, the better it gets

           A
Let's rock North America

CHORUS
E
Ahh... We are North American scum

A
Ahh... We're from North America

New York's the greatest if you get someone to pay the rent

We're from North America

It's the furthest you can live from the government

Some proud American Christians might disagree

          A
Here in North America

E
but New York's the only place

                                    A
We're keeping them off the street



E
Now we can't have parties like in Spain where they go all night

             A
Shut down in North America

A
Oh, like Berlin where they go another night, alright



E
You see, I love this place that I've grown to know

         A
Alright, North America

E
And yeah, I know you wouldn't touch us with a ten foot pole

             A
'Cause we're North Americans

CHORUS
