INTRO: 
[D] [Asus] [G]
[D] [Asus] [G]
[D] [G] [Em7] [Asus]

Some [D] people wanna [Asus] tell you it?s [G] fine
To spend your [D] whole life [Asus] standing in [G] line
Well [D] go on ahead, join the [G] living dead
I?ve [Em7] got a different plan [Asus] for mine

When the [D] sun comes [Asus] over the [G] sea
I?ll [D] tell you where [Asus] I?m a? gonna [G] be
[D] Riding in the van with the [G] rest of my band
The [Em7] wheels singing in [Asus] my dreams

Oh [G] please forgive me if I [Asus] can?t learn to live in [D] your
Generic [G] America
Where the [D] waving [Asus] fields got [G] paved
The [D] kids were out [Asus] looking for a [G] rave
And the [D] rest of us sat on our [G] big fat ass
[Em7] Watching the Rose Bowl [Asus] parade

Oh [G] why can?t you see that [Asus] I can?t be me in [D] your
Generic [G] America
Don't [D] wanna live [Asus] vicarious[G]ly
In a [D] virtual re[Asus]ali[G]ty
[D] Shopping malls and [G] prison walls
[Em7] All look the same [Asus] to me

GUITAR BREAK (same as intro)

So [D] don?t try to [Asus] tell me it?s [G] fine
Don?t [D] tell me that I?m [Asus] wasting my [G] time
Every[D]body line up, [G] piss in a cup
You [Em7] gotta be out of [Asus] your mind

?Cause I?ll [D] do it any[Asus]where I [G] choose
All [D] over your de[Asus]signer [G] shoes
Be[D]ware of a ruffian who [G] ain?t got nothing
He [Em7] ain?t got nothing [Asus] to lose

Oh [G] please forgive me if I [Asus] can?t learn to live in [D] your
Generic [G] America
Where the [D] waving [Asus] fields got [G] paved
The [D] kids were out [Asus] looking for a [G] rave
And the [D] rest of us sat on our [G] big fat ass
[Em7] Watching the Rose Bowl [Asus] parade

Oh [G] why can?t you see that [Asus] I can?t be me in [D] your
Generic [G] America
Don't [D] wanna live [Asus] vicarious[G]ly
In a [D] virtual re[Asus]ali[G]ty
[D] Shopping malls and [G] prison walls
[Em7] All look the same [Asus] to me
