[Verse 1]
---------------------
C G             G
   There's a black man with a black cat
Livin' in a black neighborhood
He's got an Interstate runnin' through his front yard
               F            C             G
You know he thinks that he's got it so good
And there's a woman in the kitchen
Cleanin' up the evenin' slop
             F
And he looks at her and says
             C
"Hey darlin', I can remember when
         G
You could stop a clock."
                      C
Oh, but ain't that America for you and me

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
G              C                    G
 Ain't that America somethin' to see baby
              C                    D
Ain't that America home of the free , yeah
                       C
Little pink houses for you and me
Oh yeah , for you and me

[Post-Chorus (1)]

G C G C G                   G
         Well, there's a young man in a tshirt

[Verse 2]
---------------------
Listenin' to a rockin' rollin' station
He's got greasy hair, greasy smile
            F            C            G
He says, "Lord this must be my destination."
Cause they told me when I was younger
"Boy you're gonna be president."
              F                            C
But just like everything else those old crazy dreams
                    G
Just kinda came and went
                      C
Oh, but ain't that America for you and me

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
G              C                    G
 Ain't that America somethin' to see baby
              C                    D
Ain't that America home of the free , yeah
                       C
Little pink houses for you and me

[Verse 3]
---------------------
                G
Well there's people and more people
What do they know know know
Go to work in some high rise
        F                C             G
And vacation down at the Gulf of Mexico
Ooh yeah
And there's winners and there's losers
But they ain't no big deal
            F                      C
Cause the simple man baby pays for the thrills, the bills
    G
The pills that kill
                      C
Oh, but ain't that America for you and me

Little pink houses for you and me
