A minorAm     FF   C majorC
 Lost in a sea of combat

boots flush the bouncers
   C majorC   G+G  A minorAm Am
with wasted youth   when
did punk rock become
  FF
so safe when did the
        C majorC
scene become a joke
the kids who used to
     G+G
live for beer and speed
  G#G#
now want their fries and
A minorAm
coke cursing and flipping

pad the floor and walls
put cameras inside
     C majorC
bathroom stalls we make
sure only nice bands
G+G
play back keeping
G#G#     A minorAm
sour Madden Brothers
These kids could be

And we could sing
      A augmentedA   E minorEm
my country Tiffany


Chorus 2:
FF
 thee sweet land
of liberty whoa
