Verse : E A Make me a fist E A Purple Mountain road that I can't miss A E Have we all had enough? A E Have we all had too much? E A Lost in a dream E A Please step down from your bully machine A E Can we all back it up? A C#m Can we all give it up? Chorus: A E B A These are the ways when you come from America E B F#m C#m The sights, the sounds, the smells A E B F#m G# These are the ways when you come from America A E A E F#m I don't want to die and she's gonna take good care of ya A E A E B I just wan to thrive and there's gonna be hysteria
Post-Chorus: E F# Don't be late G A Bm Walk us through the golden gate, yeah E F# Bruce and George G A Bm Singing for their own reward Bridge: E A Take me inside E A Twenty-three windows and it's gonna be a long ride A E All had enough? A E Have we all had too much? G#m C#m Sing me the blues G#m C#m Cowgirl's tight in her basketball shoes A E Can we all back it up? A E Can we all give it up? Chorus: A E B A These are the ways when you come from America E B F#m C#m The sights, the sounds, the smells A E B F#m G# These are the ways when you come from America A E A E F#m I don't want to die and she's gonna take good care of ya A E A E B I just wan to thrive and there's gonna be hysteria Post-Chorus: E F# Don't be late G A Bm Walk us through the golden gate, yeah E F# Bruce and George G A Bm Singing for their own reward Outro: Bm
