[Verse 1]
(A augmentedA) Gsus2Gsus2 D MajorD
You know the reasons I can't conceal
Gsus2Gsus2 D MajorD
You know I'm leaving you; Obviously, you know how I feel
Gsus2Gsus2 D MajorD A augmentedA
It's not as easy as callin' out your name when I'm down
Gsus2Gsus2 D MajorD
It's not a matter for wrong or right
Gsus2Gsus2 D MajorD
It ain't much better than drinking and looking to fight
Gsus2Gsus2 D MajorD A augmentedA
You know I'm tired of crawling 'hind my name among the crowd
[Chorus]
D MajorD A augmentedA
I'm on the last american exit to the north land
D MajorD A augmentedA
I'm on the last american exit to my homeland
D MajorD A augmentedA
I'm on the last american exit to my last chance
Gsus2Gsus2 D MajorD A augmentedA
They keep callin' out my name, I shout it down

[Verse 2]
(A augmentedA) Gsus2Gsus2 D MajorD
You've made them wonder and know for sure
Gsus2Gsus2 D MajorD
You've made them hunger at night and then run for the door
Gsus2Gsus2 D MajorD A augmentedA
You know you'll probably cry like Caesar's son when you're found
Gsus2Gsus2 D MajorD
It's not your face, it's another town
Gsus2Gsus2 D MajorD
Let's face it baby; I'm up and then baby, I'm down
Gsus2Gsus2 D MajorD A augmentedA
You'll watch the border offer you fame- and watch you drown
[Chorus]
D MajorD A augmentedA
I'm on the last american exit to the north land
D MajorD A augmentedA
I'm on the last american exit to my homeland
D MajorD A augmentedA
I'm on the last american exit to my last chance
Gsus2Gsus2 D MajorD A augmentedA
They keep callin' out my name, I shout it down
[Bridge]
Gsus2Gsus2 D MajorD
Know your neighbors and know they'll take us
Gsus2Gsus2 D MajorD
Know my city, it's just like theirs are
Gsus2Gsus2 D MajorD A augmentedA
Hope I make it, I know I'm gonna make it somehow
Gsus2Gsus2 D MajorD
Know my savior, he knows you shakers
Gsus2Gsus2 D MajorD
Know my pity, I'll see you later
Gsus2Gsus2 D MajorD A augmentedA
I'd like to stay but I know it doesn't matter somehow
[Outro]
D MajorD A augmentedA
I'm on the last american exit to the north land
D MajorD A augmentedA
I'm on the last american exit to my homeland
D MajorD A augmentedA
I'm on the last american exit to my last chance
Gsus2Gsus2 D MajorD
They keep callin' out my name
Gsus2Gsus2 D MajorD
They keep callin' out my name
Gsus2Gsus2 D MajorD A augmentedA
They keep callin' out my name, I shout it down
